Andrea Parker Movie:

The Keeper of Time Reviews:
Not A-rated, but nice for children
2009-03-27 - A low-budget-film with a rather simple story. Acting is quite slow and stiff. Nearly no character development, only some with the boy (who is struggling with his destiny) and the girl (who, at a moment, vainly tries to escape her destiny).
The special effects are not very special, possibly due to the low budget.
There should have been more emotion in the film as the boy lost his parents.
The music is not used well: at the thrilling moments the music makes you want to go asleep.
So it is not an A-rated movie, but it may have been a brave first try.
In spite of all this, I liked the movie because of the very nice picturing.

At least it was a free rental...
2005-08-25 - I rented this from my public library, and spent 70 minutes laughing it. Maybe children under 4 who have no concept of cliched plots, bad acting, cheap props/costumes, low-tech special effects, and badly written scripts (which include lines such as: "You ungrateful muscle-head!" -Udo) might enjoy it. I know the movie makers weren't looking for aiming for an Academy Award and were just creating a movie that kids might enjoy, but the 4 and 6 year old children I was babysitting while watching this were laughing at the bad acting and cheesy plot lines. The 6 year old actually predicted the ending midway through because it was indeed that predictable.
Overall, I must say I am glad that I rented this movie for free from my library, or I would have been angry. It provided a source of entertainment for myself and the kids, but not in a good way.
Watch it, you might like it. But I seriously doubt it.

So Bad it's Hilarious
2004-07-07 - I first rented this movie thinking it was some serious film reminiscent of Lord of The Rings. My suspicions turned out to be correct, but not in the way I thought they would be.

The film begins with a scene similar to some PBS style filming. This cheap filming continues throughout the ENTIRE movie. This movie is so phony that it's absolutely laughable they they could take themselves serious in making this movie.

I laughed so hard at making fun of the bad acting, poor special effects, poor filming, cheap scenery implements...it goes on and on. Everything is so cliche, so contrived. The lines are trite, the storyline is trite and the special effects mimic this "cheesiness" perfectly. This movie is so bad it makes it good.

After I finished my 90 minute laugh-a-thon I looked at the special featurse and found previews of White Wolves 1, 2, and 3. After watching each preview it was obvious they had used many of the same film clips in all three previews. The storyline was a copy in each one. It was absolutely hilarious that anyone could take this seriously.

An excellent bad film.

disagree
2004-06-24 - I totally disagree with the previous review. I rented it and my little boy just loved it. He even invented a game called "The Keeper" and they keep playing it all day long with his friends. i think this movie is not only entertaining, it teaches kids some valuable lessons about life and love.

We rented it
2004-06-20 - I would NEVER buy this movie...nor let my kids buy it...but I did make the lesser mistake of letting them rent it. Yet, it did provide some amazed-at-the-cheesiness laughs, and we have wasted our time on worse. But on the other hand, why not spend time watching much better. Learn from our four dollar mistake....
