This review is from: Jason & The Argonauts / Merlin (DVD)
Excellent Screenplay and Acting by the all star "Merlin" cast. You will look forward to watching this film again and again. All the actors are superb but Sam Neil and Martin Short "steal the show." You could watch these two recite the phone book. Did not watch "Jason" yet but "Merlin" can stand on its own and is more than worth the price.

This review is from: Jason & The Argonauts / Merlin (DVD)
I bought this video for my English class to use in conjunction with a unit on Greek mythology. It is a lively, entertaining video - fortunately we watched the video after reading Jason and the Argonauts, so the students had a good time comparing and contrasting the Hollywood version with the Edith Hamilton version. I couldn't find a lot of other relevant 'stuff' out there.

I've enjoyed Jason in this version before and am glad to have it in my collection now. The bonus is having Merlin in the same package. Both are excellent stories and I've thoroughly enjoyed them both. They may be a bit dated and campy, but great fun nevertheless. I LIKE 'EM!!!
