Wizards Ratings & Reviews

It's visually interesting, but to be honest - I've watched this movie at least dozens of times, and I couldn't tell you what it was about other than it's about two brother wizards at war, and there are like fairies, goblins, and that kind of stuff. The plot is pretty lame, and not memorable, but it also feels preachy - as if they're trying to make some overarching point instead of just telling you a good story. The animation is pretty good, but it's strange that they cut in actual footage of Nazis at times. If I didn't know it from my childhood, I don't think I'd ever watch it.

Rachel Wagner
Trippy yet fascinating piece of animation history
The Spool
Peter Sobczynski
Even accounting for its messiness, Wizards possesses a genuine, idiosyncratic personality.
Alternate Ending
Tim Brayton
What is at least galavanising and shocking in the context of Bakshi's earlier films seems more like an out-of-control tic here.
Los Angeles Free Press
Ruth Batchelor
There are moments of beauty, but it's a far cry from Fantasia.
From the Front Row
Mattie Lucas
If Wizards is a failure, then it's a fascinating failure.
MTV
Charles Webb
Bakshi is direct in his imagery and his messaging: the drumbeat of war and the rush of new technology is killing us...Wizards is far more than a simple animated curiosity, but a surprisingly dark, dangerous, and compelling piece of fantasy.

Jeremy Heilman
Bakshi's filmmaking is sloppy and slapdash at times, to be sure, but it is also uncompromising.

Eric Melin
The story is kind of a mess, but Wizards goes beyond your standard sword and sorcery tale into some heavy surrealism.
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
a unique film unlike anything else you'll see from this era
IGN DVD
R.L. Shaffer
Story and characters leave much to be desired, but there's something wonderful about this refreshingly gritty, innovative animated feature.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Ralph Bakshi's animated sword-and-sorcery tale is a long way from his best work, marred by cut-rate techniques and a shapeless screenplay.
New York Times
A.H. Weiler
Mr. Bakshi's allegory is fairly obvious from the outset, but he and his animators are convincingly professional. They have devised a melange of animation and live footage that gives their feature mystical, slightly scary and, occasionally, comic tones.

Ahead of its day when released Bakshi animation

Wizards may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it is an audacious refreshment that deserves appreciation and respect nonetheless
Your Movies (cleveland.com)
Gerry Shamray
A cartoon classic of its time that hasn't aged well.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
poorly written, and worse, it's ugly to look at
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
Degenerates into sub-Heavy Metal carnage.
