In this animated tale, Kayley dreams of being one of the Knights of the Round Table; she gets her chance when the fabled sword of Excalibur is lost. Without its power to protect him, King Arthur falls victim to Ruber, an evil knight bent on destroying Camelot. Arthur's only hope is that Kayley will find the sword. She gets some invaluable assistance from Merlin's trusty falcon, a dragon with a split personality, and a sweet blind man named Garrett.

Critics Consensus

Diminished by uneven animation and treacly songs, Quest for Camelot is an adventure that ought to be tossed back to the Lady of the Lake.

4/5

Energetic, pacey and funny with tons of great fights. What more could any six-year-old want?

A lightweight but likable fantasy that offers a playfully feminist twist to Arthurian legends.

2/5

The producers hired singer songwriters David Foster and Carole Bayer Sager to do the music -- or should I say, muzak. These two write the wimpiest music on the planet.

Both the derring-do of this duo and the comic antics of their animal sidekicks (particularly a talkative two-headed dragon) will keep children entertained.

3/5

Adapted from the novel The King's Damosel by British writer Vera Chapman, it's hot on character but rather devoid of action.

A great story with some catchy musical numbers. Don Rickles uses his traditional humor to make the two headed dragons memorable. Gary Oldman is once again a chameleon and makes for a menacing villain.

Unlike most people, I loved the movie when I was growing up. It's a shame that they never made a sequel. I would have loved it.

I hate to tell you this but the characters seem unforgettable to me including a couple of songs from Garrett, Devon and Cornwall.

I thought this was a good movie. the only flaws were the parts with the chickens at Kayley's Farm acting silly and the part where the dragons break the fourth wall before falling down the hill. Other than that the movie was very good. The film teaches you morals about acceptance and all that as well. The film was also different from your average ordinary animated Musical because the characters are aware that they're singing in the movie which is pretty cool. The storyline was very good very funny too and entertaining. Despite the few flaws in the movie I think it's very good and a cute and entertaining movie. The soundtrack is awesome as well containing songs by Andrea Corr, Bryan Adams, LeAnn Rimes, and Steve Perry. I loved the movie. Final Rating: 9/10.
