Redundant and unnecessary.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Quest for Camelot (1998): Dir: Frederik Du Chau / Voices: Pierce Brosnan, Gary Oldman, Jane Seymour, John Gielgud, Cary Elwes: Artless animation about adventure lacking detail with a predictable story just to add insult to injury. Characters fail to come to life with voice talents struggling with half wit dialogue. Children will likely approach this disappointment anticipating adventure but for a funnier and better animated substitute, I recommend Mulan. Story regards the stolen sword Excalibur by the knight Ruber. Bent on following in her father's footsteps Kayley sets for Camelot to rescue her mother. In the Forbidden Forrest she is joined by a hermit named Garrett and a two-headed dragon that cannot agree on anything. Hopefully they will both agree that this is a pathetic excuse for an animation. Director Frederik Du Chau does his best with what little he has to work with. Voice talents who attempt to breathe life into these lifeless characters include Pierce Brosnan, Gary Oldman, Jane Seymour, and John Gielgud. Even Cary Elwes gets in on this to remind us that he was in a superior adventure called The Princess Bride. They have all done better films and will likely recover from this. Easily one of the worst animations to be released in a long while. It doesn't exist for any message other than that fifty cents could produce a superior film. It is plainly an animated failure rushed for release too soon. Score: 2 / 10

I'm a little biased to this movie as I grew up watching it in the 00's; I still watch it! The music is fun and the story is cute. No the animation isn't "Disney great", but it's Warner brothers. They have a different way of animating things! One of my favorite movies, but that's probably because I grew up on it. Watch it for a good, heartwarming, cute story! Lots of good actors voicing the characters too. Fun little movie to sit down and watch with your kids, keeps you entertained. Watch it. Now. There isn't anything about this movie that would make me tell you not to see it. The dragons add a cute element and the out come of the story just makes you happy.

When I was growing up, this was my all time favourite animated movie. I just had a love for Cornwall and Devon, and all of the songs. Today, this movie doesn't hold up as well. I still am fond of the songs, and the overall message they are trying to convey to kids, but this movie is just so bland at times. The characters are your average cut and paste variety, with a few twists. Kayley (Jessalyn Gilsig) is the main character, who is your average spunky heroine who wants to be a knight. Garrett (Cary Elwes) is an angsty blind hermit, Cornwall and Devon (Eric Idle and Don Rickles) Are actually pretty funny, but sometimes are mildly annoying. Ruber (Gary Oldman) is an over the top, diabolical villain. See a lot of big names? Yes, because this film had so much potential with it's star cast which is full of talent. It just didn't work out though. The problem with the movie is that it's just plain bland. Nothing is fresh with this movie, nothing is innovative, nothing raises the bar for other movies. It's one of those movies that you see a commercial of, but no one talks about. The story is basic, but at times doesn't make sense. Warner Brother needed to realize that they weren't creating their own mythos, they needing to work with what they had, which was the setting of Camelot and the knights of the round table. They added in a bunch of things that were never in the book at all. It becomes so saturated with these kinds of things that it is barely recognizable to the book at all. The songs, in my opinion are fantastic. The talent of the singing cast really shows, with the voices of Celine Dion, Bryan White, Steve Perry, and Sarah Freeman, you can't go wrong. Sometimes the lyrics of the songs can get a little too syrupy or cheesy, but this film is intended for children. The problem arises when the songs serve no purpose. They just sing and the movie goes on like nothing occurred. It gets to a point where the songs are just in there to copy Disney's style, which I believe is what they were going for. In the end, Quest For Camelot is a decent movie. The problem is, that's all it will ever be. It tries too hard to be a Disney classic like Aladdin, but falls on it's face. I tried really hard to like this movie as I did when I was younger, but I just couldn't. It isn't torturous to watch this movie, but it isn't too fun either.

I know I gave this movie a higher rating then it probably deserves. Well lets just say this movie is a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. I actually really like it. I see its faults and still don't care. I think I was seven when this came out but I really don't think I seen it till a bit later in life. I enjoyed the characters, for the most part the songs,the plot, and the world that was created. I eventually plan to buy this movie but it's one that can wait. Which shows that I don't love it, just find it to be one of the better kids movies. Or put it this way. An old kids movie that wasn't made by Disney that I consider to be good. :)
