I have heard several people say that willow was really a tall person (6'1"), but through the magic of film, he was reduced down to 3'1". Is this true, or is this just another tall tale (pun intended)?more

A wonderful fantasy full with lots of wonderful creatures and characters. The plot is great and the cast is brilliant. I wish this movie was more known, it's almost a hidden gem.
The movie is just one exciting ride after the other.
It's one of the best fantasy movies ever made, and if you're a fantasy fan you just got to see this one. I wish there were more movies of that kind, hopefully the upcoming Lord Of The Rings will deliver similar excitement.
