Plot summary

Stuck in their late Grandfather's country cottage with no TV, Anthea, Robert and Chris are resigned to a boring week until they find a mouldy old carpet and a strange golden egg. But when the egg accidentally falls into the bonfire, it hatches into the mythical firebird, the Gloden Phoenix. So begins an amazing journey and the adventure of a lifetime, as the Phoenix takes them to a land of enchantment, magic and fantasy - via a magic flying carpet. Written by L.H. Wong

Only worth watching for the voice of Peter Ustinov

I was always a great fan of Peter Ustinov and only watched this film because of his vocal contributions.

This is basically a children's film though heaven knows what age group.

T

The film relies to a great extent on its special effects which are almost amateurish. It is difficult to believe that the Director won an oscar for his special effects on a Superman film.

There are a number of flying carpet sequence s and they are so obviously blue screen effects. The Phoenix,voiced by Ustinov looks more like a hand glove puppet.

The screenplay

The acting of the three principal children is competent.

The screenplay seems to be an amalgamation of different story lines.

Yong kids might like it, but modern kids will probably not think so.

Love the UK setting, The bird is a bit disconcerting. Also, how could they miss something so obvious, regarding Helga? No swearing exccept the words "Kick azz".
