When young Willow Ufgood (Warwick Davis; Harry Potter franchise) finds an abandoned baby girl, he learns she is destined to end the reign of the wicked Queen Bavmorda (Jean Marsh; “Upstairs, Downstairs”). In order to protect the child, Willow must team up with a rogue swordsman (Val Kilmer; Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang) and overcome the forces of darkness in the ultimate battle of good versus evil!

I can not believe it has been 25 years since Willow came out.  I guess that means I am old.  LOL.  I remember seeing it as a child, so I was nice to re-watch this classic film again with adult eyes!   This is perfect for all ages and the  combo pack is at a great price too.  The quality of the Blu ray, is impressive!  I love how they can  remaster and older video and audio now and still have great picture quality!

With so many  other fantasy movies out and releasing soon, it is hard to compare this movie to any of them.   This is a classical 80's movie that is just magical!
