Fire and Ice (1983)
Member Rating:  
Ralph Bakshi's last stab at epic fantasy takes place shortly after the Ice Age. The evil queen Juliana (voice of Eileen O'Reill) plots to conquer the world and raises her son Nekron (Sean Hannon) as a master of sorcery and arcane mental powers. Together the two conquer the Ice Kingdom, and from their stronghold Nekron commands massive glaciers to destroy everything between them and their ultimate goal: Fire Keep, ruled by the wise and powerful King Jarol Leo Gordon. Nekron's latest advance destroys a Northern village, leaving Larn (Randy Norton) the sole survivor, bent on revenge; it also exhausts Nekron, who resorts to sending emissaries to coerce Jarol into surrendering. When words fail, they resort to kidnapping Jarol's daughter Teegra (Cynthia Leake), who escapes and accidentally hooks up with Larn. Aided by the mysterious masked warrior Darkwolf (Steve Sandor), they attempt to return to Fire Keep and mobilize their warriors to bring the fight to Nekron. ~ Emru Townsend, Rovi

I have seen this movie probably 20 times, since I was 12. The animation is perfection for it's time. A MUST SEE for anime and animation fans!

Excellent period piece however our copy was marred by skips and buffering especially during the first of the special features.

Fans of the late king of fantasy artists--the great Frank Frazetta--are required by law to see this movie. His influence is everywhere in it, and pairing him with Ralph Bakshi as co-director was an inspired move. The story is fairly standard, but overall it represents a high watermark in the careers of both directors.

This was a good animation as long as you're not trying to follow the overall story. What is introduced as an epic of vast scale and continental implications very quickly degenerates to a wilderness adventure story with just two characters. It stays that way to the end. Don't expect big battles or anything.

Fire and Ice contains a lot of fighting and an ongoing chase, luckily the princes for the Fire kingdom who was kidnapped who while in bed wearing very little clothing was abducted by the Ice lord’s minions, has a hero in a freeman who happened to survive one of his own wars.

This was not my type of movie I was mistaken by renting this one. The only thing I enjoyed was woman in the movie and how realistic they made her. Other than that I must say this movie did not keep my attention at all. I finally took it out.
