Customer Reviews

“I do have trouble masticating,” Cohen the Barbarian.

Bethan (Laura Haddock) looks shocked. Rincewind “I beg your pardon!” This is a tongue-in-cheek (2008 TV movie) based on the writings of Terry Pratchett's novels "The Colour of Magic" & "The Light Fantastic". I have not read the novels, so I cannot compare this presentation to them. As soon as I saw that the bad guy Trymon was Tim Curry, I knew I was in for a treat. Brian Cox, the narrator, sets the pace for this presentation. Most of the story seems to be focused on the adventures of an expelled wizard student, Rincewind (David Jason), and a tourist, Twoflower (Sean Astin), who are protecting the eighth spell form in the hands of Trymon (an evil power-hungry wizard). We are in a mythical flat world held up by elephants standing on a turtle’s back. You get to see the turtle. “You have not been anywhere until you've got back home,” the tourist.
