It may not be lavishly produced (unlike many of the films RH worked upon), but above all it functions well as a thunderous round of applause for the career of a much-loved movie magician. Aug 23, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

This affectionate fan tribute to the legendary stop-motion special effects artist is distinguished by the fact that the fans paying tribute are among the most successful directors in the world. Jan 21, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

A little too exhaustive in its detail, but if you loved his febrile creations in Jason And The Argonauts or the Sinbad movies, it's worth catching. Nov 25, 2012 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

While a little light and fluffy - and not offering much insight or info that hasn't been covered in the numerous books on Harryhausen - it's a wonderful celebration of his work. Nov 9, 2012 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The most fascinating point made in the film is that it was Harryhausen who invented the way we all think dinosaurs moved. Those gestures - adopted as truth even by palaeontologists - first came from him. Nov 8, 2012 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

You come away feeling Harryhausen perhaps deserves a more dynamic tribute, but it's a solid round-up of an extraordinary career. Nov 8, 2012 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Told with affection and unprecedented access, this is the definitive word on the career of one of cinema's most authentic geniuses. Oct 30, 2012 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

On the DVD of 20 Million Miles to Earth there is a different documentary about the career of Ray Harryhausen. It has some different graphics and interviews, but many of the same anecdotes across the timeline of Harryhausen's life. I watched this one on Netflix. What it contains that the other lacks are interviews with filmmakers like Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg, Tim Burton, and Guillermo del Torro, as well as other effects artists who talk about the influence that Harryhausen's creatures had on them. And Harryhausen speaks for himself quite often.
