About This Movie
Once Upon a Giant is a quirky little gem from '88 that blends comedy, family, and fantasy in a rather charming way. The story centers around Lester and Humphrey, the Royal Jester and Doctor, who find themselves in a kingdom plagued by a mysterious giant. What makes this film stand out is its whimsical tone, not to mention the practical effects used to create that imposing giant shadow and voice that looms over the kingdom. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to that peculiar charm. The performances feel earnest, capturing the lighthearted spirit of the story. It certainly has that classic feel of a family adventure that’s fun but slightly absurd, making it a unique piece in the fantasy genre.
Mixed reviews, some charm in its oddity. · Practical effects give it a unique feel. · Great for those who appreciate lesser-known family films.
