Tom Saville's, How to Save the World
Go to movie
2004, Movie, Comedy, Directed by Tom Saville
Sir Flodbottom and friends must aid the wizard Merlin in saving the world.

HOW TO SAVE THE WORLD.

Well, here we have Tom Saville’s last movie.

The first thing I want to point out is the real highlight of the movie.

The voice acting.
The voice acting for this movie was just great. It really followed the whole British humour and the cartoon-y designs of all the characters.
How to save the world is really just a big cartoon. It’s honestly just family fun, Tame yet clever jokes, although, the occasional stolen joke from the Simpson’s or family guy really bring this movie’s score down. They really just felt out of place and instantly recognisable as a Simpson/family guy joke.

Also, the animation was very good, and yet simple… consisting mainly of facial expressions rather than full body movements Tom Saville seems to have really mastered using 3dmm shapes to make the expressions his characters need.

These expressions make the characters just radiate charisma and really help the voices transfer through them smoothly.

Now, the plot…
This plot is completely out of balance.
It spend over 3 quarters of the movie setting up the problem and then a short montage of them solving it.
It really just felt like one big conversation, and then an end.

They also didn’t seem to get ANY obstacles. Their only obstacle was trying to find the wand… and they just achieved it with almost no real visible effort.

To me this really just felt like a way to keep the Knights of Camelot idea alive after the original movie.

Even though this story does have some errors and low points it is defiantly worth downloading.
Just sit back, have a laugh, forget you’re even watching a 3DMM movie, and be entertained.
Because that’s really what this movie is about, not making you think about long, involving plots, but just entertaining you

NOTE: YOU HAVE TO HAVE WATCHED ‘THE KNIGHTS OF CAMELOT’ BEFORE WATCHING THIS MOVIE; OTHERWISE YOU WILL HAVE NO IDEA WHO THESE CHARACTERS ARE.
