Willow Ratings & Reviews
- TomVaderSeptember 26, 2025I'm biased by nostalgia, but I think Willow is a fantastic movie. Warwick Davis slays it as an unexpected hero. Val Kilmer lends a sarcastic comedy. Sure, the plot isn't great, and the story drags a bit, but if you're the kind of person who puts on tights and goes drinking at the Renaissance Faire, or spends evenings rolling dice in fantasy roleplay, you're probably going to love this movie. Fairies, magic, brownies, witches, castles, and swords. What else would you need?
