Staff Review

Randy Yard:
This is a tough one to review because so many facets of this film are completely antipodal; for every aspect of questionable quality, there's one deserving of praise. The effects and graphics, most notably some sharp-looking opening titles, are on the list of laudables, as are the creative camera angles. Sound and set design hold their own, and the voice acting is campy but competent. In the end, though, this film can't dodge the deadliest bullet a brickfilm can face: mediocre animation. Better-looking films have fared far worse, but just aren't enough superlatives here to buoy "The Last Travel" above the pack of similar action-adventure flicks. It's a worthy watch, but without an engrossing story or crystal-clear image, there probably won't be enough to suck the viewer in for many return visits.
