Lance Dur

About This Movie

Lance Dur is an interesting take on the action genre, mixing animation with a bit of an old-school vibe. It follows this grumpy, worn-down hero, who used to be the best of the best. The pacing has a nice ebb and flow, with the nostalgia of forgotten glory days juxtaposed against the urgency of rescuing his granddaughter, Ozie. The practical effects are surprisingly well done, especially for an animated feature, giving it a unique feel. There’s a certain charm in seeing these aging warriors, all dealing with their own physical ailments, band together, which adds a layer of humor and heart. Definitely not your typical hero's journey, it’s got an interesting emotional undercurrent that makes it stand out.
