The Good: Legend looks incredible. Like an extended shampoo advert with a humongous budget. When Tim Curry appears he dominates. But That's cos Tim Curry is aces. The Bad: its a film crying out for a decent story.The script is an amalgam of all your favourite fantasy stories. A bit Tolkien, a bit Time Bandits, a dash of Peter Pan etc etc the Ugly: The Scientologist, Tom Cruise. I don't like him. He's creepy. Even then. In a word: The most beautiful looking bag of crap you'll ever see.
