Brilliant fun!I first saw this as a kid and I loved it! OK it's Star Wars but who doesn't like Star Wars? They have actually done a good job with the film. Very exciting and lots of fun! I know it's out on DVD but it's a little pricey. Hopefully they will bring it out on Blu ray and then it will be worth the money.One of the best cartoon movies i have seen. It will keep the kid (and me) occupied for a few hours and you will get a good few watched out of it.A classic from back in the day :)

Somewhere underground of a planet where a race of humans are enslaved to dig for a evil baron named Zygon, a young man named Orin discovers a magic blade-less sword to kill his enemies as he becomes the master of the sword. His quest is to dig up to the upper world to find the blade he seeks, during his mission he joins with a smuggler, a princess and two robots to save his home planet and free his people.Often referred to as a "Star Wars" rip-off but i think it's a terrific and exciting animated Korean/U.S. made Sci-fi romp for adults ( not really for kids) in the tradition of "Heavy Metal" and The Story of Moses. For it's day there's some old school CGI and was originally in 3-D, i think the movie is a wonderful and nicely done animated movie that i recommend for fans of Sci-fi, animation and "Star Wars" alike.Also recommended: "Rock & Rule", " Heavy Metal", "Titan A.E.", " Fire & Ice", " The Black Cauldron", "Star Wars Saga", "Krull", " Serenity", " Star Trek Saga", " Transformers The Movie", "Spaceballs", " Nausicca: Valley of the Wind", "Princess Mononoke", "Akira", " Ghost in The Shell 1 & 2", " Flash Gordon", "The Dark Crystal", "Prince of Egypt", " Project A-Ko", " Wizards", " Fantastic Planet".

Man I was exactly the same. I seen this movie when i was a kid. I couldn't remember the name . only images. I wasn't sure myself if it existed. Anyways when the net started gaining popularity in 96-97 i tried everything to find this movie, after a few months of searching i found it. I remembered the name orin, and searched the name, and the movie popped up. Anyways i found an old school movie store that had totally old cartoons, like He-Man, Thundercats, etc.. and they had tgis movie. I was shocked and i rented it, totally brought back some memories, Great movie, and nostalgic. But tuff as hell to find now that everything is dvds.

This film along with Wizards, Lord of the Rings, Fire and Ice, Heavy Metal & Heavy Metal 2000, Rock and Rule, Transformers the Movie and G.I. Joe The Movie are some of the finest non anime examples that were ever produced in the 1970's and '80's (and 2000 for Heavy Metal 2000). They simply don't make films like this anymore as I stated in my comments on Fire & Ice. This is the stuff I grew up with. I am a huge fan of animation in general and this is something that has captured my imagination for years on end, ever since I saw it. The movie does a lot of borrowing from Star Wars but has an excellent story to compliment the excellent animation. Originally, from what I've heard and seen on the posters, it was supposed to be in 3-D but, I never did get to see it in theatres. Too bad the video isn't actually in 3-D...that might have been cool..maybe if they ever put this baby out on DVD someday they'll have the 3-D presentation of the film. Nostalgia is a wonderful thing and this movie brings back a lot of good memories. It's nice to see that so many others hold the same memories for the film as I do.-Daguon
