Garrett B @gmoney637 1h The Adventures Of Prince Achmed is full of heart and excitement thanks to it unique silhouette animation style that has aged beautifully. See more Tom M @RT77934561 Aug 31 A wonder of time and patience. Beautifully put together, this animated film expertly portrays emotion, comedy and slight erotica by means of shadow puppets. I saw it with a live score which only enhanced the magic. See more Nik F @nikfort 02/04/2025 Really beautiful to watch! The silhouettes are so intricately cut, and there’s such grace to the design. It’s definitely fantastical. The plot got a little dull at times, with one kidnapped damsel in distress after another. And the whole reason one of them wasn’t able to escape is because Prince Achmed took a magical item that belonged to her. The witch is really the hero, and the fight scenes versus the demons were fun to see. Overall highly recommend, just know that the plot hasn’t aged terribly well.

The story is obviously very dated, but still well worth a watch. See more Leaburn O @RT35452347 08/23/2024 Actually found it a real bore to watch, however I give it a decent rating because the animation is a wonder to see and is incredibly enchanting. I saw a remastered version in 4KHD on YouTube. See more S R @ScottR 01/24/2024 1001 movies to see before you die. This one certainly deserves to be on the list for its originality, art, design and story. It's a brilliant stop action movie that is very memorable. I do remember seeing bits of it before, but maybe I didn't see the whole thing? Saw on YouTube. See more Read all reviews
