DVD Reviews of Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer
DVD Review: A rainbow trip for 80s fans.
Summary: 3 Stars
As the only Rainbow Brite title available on DVD, I'll take what I can get. Rainbow is surprising adventurous and fearless -- and much less cloyingly sweet than I remember. Think of her as "Baby She-Ra"!
This movie feels like it was supposed to attract boys to the franchise as well. It introduces a new male lead, Krys and his Knight Rider-esque horse, On-X. This movie also has more robots, monsters, and scary lizard people than you would expect from a movie aimed at young girls. And thankfully, there is only one musical number at the beginning of the movie.
The animation is crisp and clean. The transfer is surprisingly vivid for a 20 year old movie. This may have been many viewer's first exposure to anime, as this beat Transformers: The Movie to the theaters by a year. And Akira wasn't released until 1988. The high detail/low frame rate is a signature of Japanese animation. And this has the same production values of mid-80s anime.
Like many 80s children cartoons, character motivation and plot aren't always coherant. It's never explained why the Princess wants all these jewels. (where are her parents, anyway?) There are some funny scenes involving her and her pet gemstone she drags around everywhere. Might be a little scary for very young children. But I think it's a fun movie for nostalgia-hungry Gen Xer's as well as young children of today.
