Years ago, there was a place called The Land of Point, because everything in The Land of Point had one: the barns, the houses, the cars, everything, even the people. Everyone in The Land of Point had a point at the top of its head. Everyone, that is, except Oblio, who was born round-headed. Since he had no point, Oblio, along with his trusty dog, Arrow, was banished to the Pointless Forest. Join them to see what wonders await these two intrepid travelers as they make their way on their amazing, song-filled journey of discovery!

This a charming movie. The animation is simple, but nice. It feels like picking up a children's book and reading it, which is also what bookends the whole story. The character design is mostly quite nice, and some of the characters are visually great fun. The same goes to some of the sequences, especially the imagery during the songs. While it's not ground breaking in any way, the look is sweet enough that the movie would probably appeal to fans of animation.A big draw is Ringo Starr, who is the narrator/dad in the home media release of this movie. He does a good job, as does Harry Nilsson singing the soundtrack. But I do kind of wish that the same person would have done both.The story itself is simple, but nice. It drags a bit at times. And while it mostly works, it might be a bit of a stretch to base a 60+ minutes story around a single pun. But the moral of the story is safe and probably understandable to the young target audience.

the way in forest. the questions who becomes answers. the voices of Ringo Starr and ... , entire atmosphere - thin border between fairy tale and parable. more than beautiful/successful animation or wise lesson about yourself and the other, it is a splendid film about basic things who gives sense to life. and the manner to told the story of different boy and his dog, the meetings and dialogs does not only a good impression and, for many, food for nice memories , but, in same measure, a fresh and powerful warning. not the tolerance is the subject but the science to build it. so, a necessary film. for the seductive emotions. for the lovely atmosphere. and for a clear image of everyday universe.

Absolutely wonderful animated film. Great to watch with kids from 4 to 104. The version with Ringo Starr as the narrator has recently been re-released. I personally prefer the versions narrated by Dustin Hoffman and Alan Thicke but Ringo is fine, as well. Great birthday or holiday gift for a child from 4-12. It can be watched over and over. I first saw it at age 17 and used it as the starting "point" for a high school retreat. I started watching it with my children when they were toddlers, and I am seeing it again with with my youngest who is now 15 and seeing it for his 3-4th time. He asked to watch it with his younger cousin who had not seen it yet. A gem.

I'm really glad I stumble around IMDb.com. The memories are awesome. I almost fell out of my chair when I ran across "The Point" starring round-headed Oblio and his obnoxious contemporary, the count's son. Oblio ended up taking some journey of self-discovery, and I can scarcely recall what happened or how or with whom, though I recall that he returned home a dyed-in-the-wool hero. I was surprised to learn that Mike Lookinland--Bobby Brady, no?--voiced the title role. This unique cartoon--hitherto buried in the depths of my memory--afforded a beautiful lesson in individuality and self-respect worthy of a Johannine parable. I only wish the count's son got what was coming to him. (Rich kids tend to act that way, and they tend never to suffer for it.)
