In 5th-century Ireland, a Celtic prince becomes a rebel leader after the killing of his family. `Roar' didn't make much noise (it came and went in the summer of 1997); a pity because executive producer Shaun Cassidy's well-mounted adventure effectively combined action and romance with mysticism and magic.
  • The Joy of Sets: When Heath Ledger Roared and Thunderbirds Soared! | DVD News and Reviews | 1/23/2008
