An underrated and almost forgotten treasure
I honestly love the King's Beard. There was a time when it was played
every Christmas but it isn't anymore. Shame really, this is actually really good. My only complaints are that it is too short and I do remember the beginning being a little on the intense side. Everything else though is great, the animation is colourful and nice and the music is lovely. I loved the simplicity of the story and characters, and that both elements were engaging enough for kids and adults. The vocal characterisations are excellent, Jim Broadbent and Colin McFarlane especially do a great job as the Wizard and the villain Jasper. I liked Sophie, she is beautiful and Rufus is very likable. Overall, I like this underrated and almost forgotten treasure. 8/10 Bethany Cox. A Great Movie For Both Kids And Adults
The Kings Beard is a absolutely great film. I watched it the day before
Christmas- I\'m really glad I did! The animation is top-notch and the story is brill. But I must warn you, the songs can get quite annoying after watching it more than five times, but it\'s a good film, perfect for a rainy day.I found that, after asking around my own age group, that majority of people loved it, even my mum loves it! It\'s simple but has a really good feel to it- a lot of heart must of gone into it. Whatever you do, don\'t judge the clips of it or front cover of the video, you need to see what it\'s really like by watching it. This is a great film for all ages- even the older generations too. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did... Have Fun!. |
