Movie Reviews of Prince Valiant
Movie Review: Prince Valiant
Summary: 5 Stars
A nostalgic trip for all those who have read the Harold Foster books. The film is reasonably true to the beginning of the Prince Valiant series .
A young Robert Wagner is suitable in the lead role as the exiled Viking prince ably supported by the georgeous Janet Leigh and James Mason who portrays the Villainous Black Knight, Sir Brack.
But it is Sterling Hayden as Sir Gawain , looking terribly uncomfortable in a wig that doesn't quite fit, who steals the show.
A classic film that portrays the pageantry and beauty of mystical Camelot in Cinemascope but refreshingly does not focus on King Arthur. Instead it follows the adventures of Prince Valiant as he seeks to slay the Viking traitor Slygon and reclaim his father's throne.
With an excellent musical score, this action packed movie is good value viewing for the whole family.
Movie Review: Excellent and fun movie for families! Our kids love it! :)
Summary: 5 Stars
We have really enjoyed watching this together as a family - there's something for everyone from princesses to a prince to even the bad guy in King Arthur's Court. It is what it is - a fun family movie that capture children's imaginations and we parents don't have to worry about foul language. Sure wish the "new" hollywood would make fun, clean movies keeping wholesome family viewing in mind! That is the reason we love this movie - kid's don't need the sleekness and side, mature jokes that come out in current movies - this movie is fun and great to watch - highly recommend it! =-)
5 Stars!!! for family viewing!!!
Movie Review: The ..."Singing Sword"...overcomes all obstacles
Summary: 5 Stars
There is a certain spiritual quality to this movie, which i first saw as a youth at the Starr Theater in Bushwick, a theater that i considered my second home on the weekends as i paid my 50 cent and immersed myself in the timeless tales of heroes and honor and redemption. The purity and the innocence of Prince Valiant was what struck me the most about this movie... how he saved his father's honor and that of king arthur.. the villans never do get the message... that god can defend the right ..and often does, not only in this movie but in others such as ..The Black Shield of Falworth. (Fidus Et Audax) Faith and Daring.Movie Review: Dreamily Perfect
Summary: 5 Stars
I was fourteen the first I saw this movie when it was broadcast on NBC Monday Night At The Movies. Having fallen in love with the character when I was five [fifty-five years ago] and reading the comic strip in the Sunday paper, I was quite excited when it came on TV and not dissapointed.
Today, I got my copy of the dvd. I don't care what anyone else has to say, the movie is still as dreamily perfect as I remember it. I LOVE the bonus of widesceen. The color and sound are so very good. It is wonderful.
Movie Review: May be the best performance of Wagner in the screen!
Summary: 5 Stars
The splendid saga of the young Scandinavian prince is told with efficency and directorial maestry . He enters the court of King Arthur and returns his family to their throne , restoring his birthright.
Henry Hataway in one his best works with ravishing photography and admirable and easy going script.
A family entertainment and a superb cast .
