It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The Magic Sword: Quest for Camelot is an example of a Disney rip-off, but the animation is good, and the CGI, well, it needs a little improving. And the characters' design are alright but Ruber's henchmen have some impressive designs. Since, this film did have references from other Disney animated films like "Aladdin", "The Lion King", and even "Beauty and the Beast". But still other films that aren't Disney related still got references from are "Godzilla", and "Dirty Harry". The film's humour needs a little touching up. Plus, Ruber makes a good villain, but his insanity is way off.The film's plot somehow comes off track at times, and that's how it flopped at the box-office. But on the bright side, "The Prayer" is nominated for an Oscar and won a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song. So in conclusion, The Magic Sword: Quest for Camelot is not a bad film, but it's an Okay film. I mean, the filmmakers did their effort of making the film. I'm giving this film 5/10

The Nostalgia Critic send me.It's 1998 and animation had a rough time.Including lesser known animated movies like Antz and this.This is an animated fantasy movie about the girl Kayley and her friends that must save the stolen sword Camelot.The villain will use Camelot to evolve into a super villain, but he gets defeated at the end so Camelot is in safe hands.Here is something for all.Loads of movie spoofs, unforgettable songs, fun and action.The characters ranks from silly sidekicks, and lots of monsters.Lauren Faust did some of the animation.The all star cast includes Andrea Corr, Eric Idle, Jaleel White and so much more.10/10

I first saw this film with my sister when I was 11 and she was 7 on a ferry home from France and after having forgotten about it for several years, I re-discovered it upon learning that the Nostalgia Critic had done a review on it. His review wasn't particularly favourable but it was enjoyable nonetheless.Anyway back to the film. The first time I watched it my favourite characters were Devon and Cornwall, who added some comedic value to the film, although I've taken a liking towards Kayley as well for being a brave and original heroine since not all heroines of fantasy films want to be knights. The film has some memorable moments such as the beginning where Kayley is a little girl and saddened at the loss of her father as well as her transition from a child to an adult as she looks at her reflection in the water. I could also remember Devon and Cornwall impersonating Elvis, which was somewhat anachronistic for the film's setting. In spite of this, I liked their song 'If I Didn't Have You' as well as Kayley's 'On My Father's Wings' and Juliana's 'The Prayer.' Garrett's solo number was okay, but his singing voice didn't match his speaking voice. I liked his duet with Kayleigh better. The background music was quite pleasant as well, especially the Irish jig-type music. There are some worthy special effects as well such as the lens flare on the sword, the cold breath coming from Kayley's mouth in the snow and the green lighting during Ruber's song and when he takes Juliana hostage. Some of the effects were a tad CGI-ish, such as the ogre made of rock, but it is funny when Ruber says, "The ogre's butt." It was also funny when Devon and Cornwall said they'd barbecue a bully before breathing fire at the griffin as well as the ending where Kayley and Garrett ride away on a horse with a 'Just Knighted' sign across its bottom. As for the animation, it was consistent for the most part but slow during the back-story of the sword at the beginning.All in all, this is an exciting film worth seeing again after several years. 8/10.

This movie was one of my favorites when I was a kid and still is. I love the music, the story, and the animation. It's very entertaining and cute! Don't know why people give it such bad reviews. It may be a little corny, but it's a kids movie and they all are to a degree. The cast is amazing, and the music is very catchy (I still have the songs on my iPod). The forest is very creatively depicted, and the funny parts are cute. It's not a movie that you're supposed to take seriously. It's very sweet! I bought it on DVD and my friends and I watch it together and reminisce about our childhoods. I highly recommend it! It's got the whole adventure element without being super romantic like most other cartoons, which is refreshing and part of the reason why I like it so much. It's great to show to kids, and I think it's a very cute little movie.
