Profile of The Colour of Magic

The Colour of Magic can be described as exciting and humorous. The plot revolves around an imaginary kingdom, curses, spells and rituals, and supernatural abilities. The main genres are adventure, fantasy, and family. In approach, The Colour of Magic is fantastical. It is based on a TV series. It is well suited for kids and a family outing.

Summary of The Colour of Magic

Adapted from Terry Pratchett's celebrated Discworld series, THE COLOR OF MAGIC offers a wonderful, if decidedly low-budget, rendition of the fantasy land that was originally broadcast on British television. As the story unfolds, wayward wizard Rincewind (David Jason) sets off with traveler Twoflower (Sean Astin)--not to mention his magical luggage--on a grand tour of the kingdom. Together, they cross paths with dragons, druids, and even Death himself (voiced by horror legend Christopher Lee). But their most important journey lies ahead of them, as Rincewind is called to save Discworld from the dastardly sorcerer Trymon (Tim Curry).

Why I Loved "The Color of Magic"
"The Color of Magic" is a movie full of laughter, excitement, and wizards. I loved the humor incorporated into its colorful fabric, and I thought it was beautifully done.
I wanted to love it. I love Pratchetts books, including this one. I love the cats. The show is visually gorgeous. But the dialogue and pacing are stiff and difficult to get absorbed in. We lost interest within an hour.
