Reception

Monster Hunter gave the film a bad review, however noting that it is better than its predecessor: "Keeping the action set in Ireland, dispensing with the lame family drama and ramping up the action up to and including a trip to the underworld where poor Mikey is forced into a leather harness so he can haul the steamer trunk full of leprechauns and his now shrunken grandfather(!) easily make Spellbreaker a two-leaf clover film to Leapin’ Leprechauns!‘s one-leaf clover blarney. And if it’s all resolved with a bit of leprechaun wish deus ex machina that seemed made up on the spot, well, that’s just something to be chalked up to the mysterious ways of those tricky Fairy Folk, right?".[1] TV Guide gave Spellbreaker two out of five stars, stating: "even kids may be disappointed by the cheap special effects, with a crude illusion of miniaturization attempted merely by posing "leprechauns" as far away from the camera as possible, with magnified objects in the foreground. On the other hand, ornate costumes and interiors (even a properly spooky, fiery Underworld) are quite impressive, and most likely creditable to the opera and theater craftspeople of Bucharest.[2]Spellbreaker: Secret of the Leprechauns holds a 50% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.[3]
