Synopsis

The legend of King Arthur gets the Disney treatment in this lively animated adventure. Young Arthur (known as Wart) is a commoner in medieval England. He meets the eccentric Merlin the Magician, who attempts to teach him about the world, and discover his true purpose in life. Meanwhile, a magical sword is embedded in a stone in a London graveyard and only the rightful heir to the throne can ever pull it out. Could Arthur be the one? A charming version of the medieval story, memorably bringing the myths and legends to life.
