Following their animated/live action hit Space Jam , Warner Bros. jumped into the fully animated feature competition by playing it safe, giving the Arthurian legend a conspicuously Disneyesque facelift. Ingredients from Beauty and the Beast , The Little Mermaid , and Pocahontas are evident in the tale of a girl named Kayley (Jessalyn Gilsig) whose father, a Knight of the Round Table, is killed by Sir Ruber (Gary Oldman), a maniacal brute who steals Excalibur and threatens to seize King Arthur's Camelot. Kayley enlists the blind, reclusive knight-aspirant Garrett (Cary Elwes) to brave the Enchanted Forest and retrieve the magic sword, and their adventure is (of course) fraught with danger. Adding extra punch to the movie's commercial appeal, the soundtrack songs are performed by big names like LeeAnn Rimes and Celine Dion. And if that's not enough to hold a kid's attention, there's a two-headed dragon ("we're the reason cousins shouldn't marry") voiced by Eric Idle and Don Rickles. With so much talent involved, it's entertaining but uninspired, although cleverly harmless riffs from Dirty Harry , Taxi Driver , and other movies spice up the adventure with enjoyable pop-culture references. --Jeff Shannon Quest for Camelot (WBFE) (DVD) Journey back to a time of brave knights and noble deeds, of wizards and fabulous creatures in the magical, animated Arthurian legend, Quest For Camelot.A fair maiden who longs to be a knight, despite her sex and the admonition of her mother ... A handsome hermit whose blindness blocked his aspiration to a life of heroic deeds ... An evil knight who steals the King's sword, Excalibur. Now an unlikely duo ventures forth with the blessing of Merlin the Magician to reclaim Excalibur, facing a comical two-headed dragon, an evil griffin and rescuing a damsel in distress along the way. Review: Great walk down memory lane. Awesome movie. - I watched this as a kid and when I realized I couldn’t stream it without purchasing it, I decided to buy the physical dvd instead of the streamed download version. So happy I did. How nostalgic it was to watch this film with my own two kids all these years later and see their joy as they experienced it for the first time. The dvd itself has a few fun extras too which my kids enjoyed. Review: A throwback for movie night - I love this movie. Good for kids and cute songs

A good family movie
I liked this movie - not sure if I'll watch it again, but I liked it. Pros: It's very family-friendly and cute as it is also a 'sing-along' kind of movie. The artwork is unique and beautiful (for something from 1998) and the plot is certainly unique (but perhaps not all the inspired). The music score is decent, but such as to be expected from a kids movie. Cons: About the first 30-40 minutes of the movie is filled to the brim with musical sing along scores. They're alright but most seem fairly extraneous and get annoying after the first 20 minutes. There doesn't seem to be too much plot/character development in this (which, keep in mind, IS a children's movie...) which bothers me just a bit. Conclusion: A cute film - not a bad one, not a great one, but one I probably wont refer back to often. Good for children, not so much for adults (or teens).

Un très beau dessin animé
Je conseille ce dessin animé a tout ceux qui aime ce genre d'œuvres! Le DA est très bien dessiné, l'histoire est assez palpitante, les héros changent de l'ordinaire (femme guerrière et héro non-voyant), les chansons sont franchement bien (voix francaise chantée de "Belle" et "Odette"), c'est un vrai plaisir de voir ce film a nouveau!

Consigliatissimo e adatto a tutta la famiglia!
Questo film costituisce uno dei ricordi più piacevoli della mia adolescenza e dopo tante ricerche, grazie ad Amazon, ora fa parte della videoteca famigliare. La versione è quella inglese, la copertina è in francese, la scelta audio comprende inglese, francese, italiano, portoghese e olandese, mentre i sottotitoli sono disponibili in arabo, spagnolo, tedesco, rumeno, bulgaro e inglese per non udenti. Il titolo italiano di questo film di animazione del '98 è “La spada magica - Alla ricerca di Camelot”: si tratta di una storia che si svolge nel regno di Camelot, ai tempi di Re Artù, incentrata sui valori della famiglia, dell'amicizia, dell'amore, della lealtà, che vanta doppiatori del calibro di Gigi Proietti, Manuela Cenciarelli, Massimiliano Alto e Massimo Corvo (peraltro, facenti parte della squadra di doppiaggio del film “Aladdin” del '92). I disegni sono ben fatti e la colonna sonora ben accompagna i momenti salienti del film e comprende il brano “Preghiera di una madre”, più noto come “The prayer” che, nel '99 ha vinto il Golden Globe Award come “miglior canzone originale”. A mio parere, è un vero peccato che non abbia riscosso molto successo e che sia, quindi, un film conosciuto da pochi, e mio marito, che ne ha sentito parlare soltanto in questa occasione, è d'accordo con me. Adatto a tutta la famiglia, consigliatissimo ai più piccoli e a tutti quelli che ancora ci si sentono!

Wunderschöner Film - Für die "Alten" Disney Fans ein muss!
Ich bin froh, dass ich diesen Film in meiner Kindheit sehen konnte und vorallem, dass es diesen noch zu kaufen gibt. Als großer Disney Fan, liebe ich die noch liebevoll mit Hand gezeichneten Filme sehr. Dieser hier ist auch einer davon. Tatsächlich kenne ich von der Story her keinen vergleichlichen Film, was bei den vielen Filmen heutzutage ja nicht leicht ist. Er ist schön gezeichnet, lustig, spannend und berührt das Herz. Auch finde ich es schön, dass es hier auch um einen Hauptcharakter geht der erblindet ist - nicht jeder Held muss perfekt sein und darf Schwächen haben! Apropos nicht perfekt, die Drachen die in der Geschichte vorkommen sind "siamesische Zwillinge". Das bedeutet sie teilen sich einen Körper, dies kann für die jüngeren Kinder sicherlich sehr befremdlich sein. Ebenfalls sollte man sich mal die "Bösewichte" vorher einmal ansehen, diese sind für kleinere Kinder eventuell zu "gruselig" dargestellt, da der Schurke hier sein Gefolge durch Magie mit Waffen verschmelzen lässt. Durch die Musik und das Singen nimmt man es wohl nicht ganz so gravierend war, aber in Aktion können sie doch schon furchterregend sein. Positives: + Liebevoll gezeichnet + Gut gewählte Hauptcharakter + Keine 0815 Story + Humorvoll + Spannend + Berührt das Herz Negatives (für jüngere Kinder): - Die Drachenfigur ist zwar witzig, aber für kleinere Kinder sicher etwas befremdlich - Bösewichte eventuell zu gruselig für jüngere Kinder Fazit: Ein wunderschöner, aber dennoch viel zu unbekannter Film, den man sich als "Disney Freund" auf jeden fall mal anschauen sollte, da er alles bietet was man sich von einen liebevoll gezeichneten Film erwartet. - Daher klare Kaufempfehlung! ...Ich hoffe ich konnte euch helfen :)
