Amazon.com: A story line that truly deserves the A-list treatment, The Last Unicorn is memorable for its attempts to stay faithful to its origins, the Peter Beagle novel of the same name. The animation is vintage Rankin/Bass, and that's too bad; but there's an undeniable strength in this tale and telling. A unicorn (Mia Farrow)--she believes herself the last--searches for any others of her kind, while avoiding the malevolent Red Bull, the agent believed to have destroyed the rest of the herd. Along the way, she is mistaken, ignored, attacked, and obsessed about, finally finding help from a magician named Schmendrick (Alan Arkin) and a knight named Prince Lir (Jeff Bridges). A haunting film that pays homage to mythology and the people who love it. --Keith Simanton

Rating: - Would have bought this...
I loved this movie as a child - and came here as an adult to buy it. It's great to hear it's been restored, but if it was at the price of the integrity of the film, I absolutely refuse to purchase an edited copy. Restoration should mean returning to the original state, not censoring to snare a overprotected, overly sanitized new audience. I will certainly buy a copy when they fix this issue (and intend to find a way to complain to the company responsible as well).
Rating: - Loved the movie
I loved the movie. Will watch it over and over. Arrived in great condition and on ahead of the delivery time.
Rating: - Excellent DVD !
Excellent fantasy-story not only for children but also for adults. We hear the voices of great talents like Angela Lansbury, Mia Farrow and Christopher Lee. The music and the main song is performed by America and the result is so fine. Enjoy it one and once again.
Rating: - love it

Rating: - Oldy but goodey
I grew up with this movie and had it as a VHS when I was a little girl, but I lost my tape. I found this at Blockbuster and was overjoyed. It's an excellent movie. It is very nice to watch an old film of this caliber again. Yeah it's no fancy high-definition movie, but story is better that way. The Last Unicorn is an exciting eventful story that leaves you entranced.
