THE PLOT:

A magical land torn apart by a century of civil war. Now both sides must face a greater threat. The magical adviser sets a plan in motion to let loose the kingdom's sacred Gryphon in order to gain control of it, the kingdom and gain immortality.

A team from both sides of the conflict go on a dangerous quest to find a way to kill the Gryphon in order to slay the evil wizard once and for all.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

The effects could have been better and I am not sure about the Gryphon design. But I do know I could have done without the whole century of war thing, it's so FIRE AND ICE. But the cast does do a great job and the plot works for the most part, so...9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree with Zedd for the most part, the matting could have been much better and the whole fighting in the team during a quest got old quick. 8 STARS.

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- INFIGHTING (The whole civil war and infighting with the team got old fast.)

...AND FINALLY...

- MATTING ISSUES (The matting for the Gyphon could have been better.)
