Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Prismark10 Tommy Steele was a popular entertainer when I was a kid. A pop singer, actor and frequent performer in musicals.He had a trademark toothy grin but I was surprised how relatively few films he made.In the late 1970s he branched out into television and made two Christmas Specials for ITV and Quincy's Quest was one of them. You might say it was the Toy Story of its day.A live action extravaganza with plenty of blue screen. Steele plays Quincy an imperfect toy among group of rejected ones in a department store and are set to be destroyed. He sets outs in a quest to visit Santa in his grotto on the top floor in order to save these toys destined to be thrown into the fire. However a wicked witch is hellbent on stopping Quincy.Quincy gets detoured along the way, a showman puts him on a wrong train which crashes, a damsel sends him to the army and then he battles giant robots.Its really musical theatre with plenty of effects. Steele is in his element with the song and dance numbers, Mel Martin is very appealing and Gretchen Franklin (Ethel from Eastenders) is the witch.The special effects have dated but its still an enjoyable show for kids.

ashley wetherall There are a lot of people out there who don't like Tommy Steel. But if you asked them why , I bet they couldn't tell you the reason. Or if they could I bet they would give you some superficial reason. For instance his toothy grin, his cockney brogue when he sings and his full head of hair, Tommy the toreador?The truth is it all comes down to a bit of petty jealousy. Tommy steel can sing, dance, act and he's been doing all these things well for over 50 years. He is also responsible for one of the best Christmas musical extravaganza's ever made for television. I first saw Quincy's Quest when I was 8 years old and I was blown away by it. Last year I managed to see a bootleg copy of it and it is as still as fresh as ever. The story of a broken toy left in the basement of a department store that goes on a quest to top floor to find Father Christmas and ask him to save the other broken toy's before they are incinerated. On his quest he has many adventures, finds love and has to battle and evil witch and her robot henchman. There are great song's along the way and a bit of anti war pathos that never gets preachy.The special effects are old fashioned but are done very well. And all the performances are spot on.The only problem is that its still not available on DVD and has never been shown on TV since the early 80's. I whole heartedly recommend Quincy's Quest for the whole family. Both Kids and Adults will love it.

Ogy I also have very fond memories of this film as a young child. I am determined to get a copy. I had this on video tape for a very long time as a child and know it word for word - even now I'd guess I could name the next line/screen. However, as this get played repeatedly in my house by me and my brother it eventually wore out! Finally when we moved house my parents used the opportunity to 'accidentally loose it'. Can you believe it? I was so pleased to find this notice board as none of my mates has ever heard of it. This is not just for me but to show my young children - to show them how we did things before animation!!! Please help if you know where I can get a copy of this wonderful oldie.

t-weir This is one of the best christmas films i have seen, my mother and myself hope each year for it to come on the TV. I would love to get it if anyone knows where i could buy it i would love to know. Please put it on again, Where is Tommy Steele these days any way???
