Wizards of the Lost Kingdom (1985)
Every bit as good as Labrynth
If watched and enjoyed Labrynth, The Never Ending Story, Krull, The Princess Bride or any other 70's and 80's science fiction/fantasy movie made for 6 to 12 year olds, you should enjoy this. That being said, I think this move killed Thomas Christopher's Career (he was Hawk in the Buck Roger's TV Series) the movie is woth watching for the many opportunities it gives for mockery, derision, ridicule at it's expense. The key point is this movie was not made for anyone with an intellectual, or social maturity beyond about the age of 14. I watch These movies occasionally for the purpose of a short escape from reality and to relatively easier more carefree times in my life. At those times this movie and all the others that fit my description above Score 10 Star.
The Wheel of Time (2021)
1200+ page novel into a single season of 1hour episodes
You can't put everything you need from the 1st book in season of 1 hour episodes. Jordan does very well at developing multiple storyline's and subplots. The producers missed some very important elements that should have been chronologically the first episode. That set up for the 10th book. They tried this with The Sword Of Truth series, it wound up being merely mediocre , and failed after 1 season. Hope this does better.
