Film Review - Unicorn Wars
March 08, 2023
“Unicorn Wars” is a Spanish-French animated production about the eternal battle between teddy bears and their archenemies, unicorns. It sounds like a comedy, or perhaps a ready-made cult cinema title, but writer/director Alberto Vazquez takes the premise seriously, endeavoring to understand the price of war and the corruption of conflict with the picture, which is not intended for younger viewers. These teddy bears are ready to kill, amputate limps, expose their genitals, and curse, offering R-rated experiences for an audience ready to process the extremity found in the movie. “Unicorn Wars” isn’t a particularly commanding viewing experience, but it does register with creative visuals, strong voice work, and commitment to the concept, with Vazquez marching forward with this decidedly violent and wholly bizarre feature.
