Was awesome seeing Warwick davis return to this role, he nailed it in the original. Was expecting to see an experienced powerful presence, rather he seemed to bumble allot and not achieve any epic battles. Felt like too much went into character development for the new audience and perhaps overlooked some of whatade willow great. Would still recommend tho and look forward to more.

This is a wonderful TV show about a boring lesbian couple that really don't do anything in the face of great danger as the titular character is shamed at every turn for living with the disability of masculinity.

Once upon a time Willow, the movie, was a fun epic of adventure and magic. Now it's two lesbian women having endless and forgettable conversations that add nothing to the plot, virtue signal the political position of the creators, and leave the show void of adventure and magic.

After watching the film "Willow" for the first time, it was perceived as a corny yet lovable movie with entertaining moments, albeit with cheesy and lacking depth. While the film has its charm, it may not be one that warrants repeat viewings, as it falls short in terms of overall enjoyment. The storytelling and character development were deemed subpar, failing to create an enchanting or immersive experience as initially anticipated.

Despite "Willow" becoming a cult classic, it ultimately fell into the category of films that are predominantly corny and cheesy. The television series that attempted to capitalize on the movie's cult status failed to live up to expectations, leading to its cancellation after one season. The series struggled to capture the essence of the original film, resulting in a lackluster and unengaging viewing experience.

In conclusion, both the movie and the television series based on "Willow" failed to leave a lasting impact and were ultimately deemed uninspiring and difficult to follow. While the film may have its moments, it may not be enough to warrant a recommendation for viewers looking for a captivating and enjoyable cinematic or television experience.
