wrong movie August 18, 2004
Format:VHS Tape
The cast list for this movie is actually for a 1994 Family Channel version of the same title. While I can't say anything for the animated movie, the Good King Wenceslas tv movie was extremely enjoyable.

I saw this one when it was originally on the Family Channel. While the video is of good BBC-style quality at best, Brandis powerfully portrays a young prince who heroically defies the scheming of his step-family to save his people and his throne. Due warning: This movie contains heavy and blatant Christian symbolism and may offend some viewers of other faiths. I'd still suggest giving it a try, however, as it's really an awesome movie. Thumbs Up!

I love this movie. The girl who comes to marry Prince Wenceslas (before he becomes the "good King") is spunky and intelligent and they make a great couple. The story is likely to be a little too good and sweet for many people, but I loved it and you hardly ever hear anything about Wenceslas, perhaps because he was good, kind and Christian; three things the secular world has very little tolerance for. As for the comment from another reviewer about it containing "blatant" Christianity that might offend someone: It seems to me that, if you're offended by Christianity, then don't watch Christmas movies; watch "Winter Holiday" movies instead. We have Christmas in the first place because it is a celebration of His life and birth. Getting offended about it would be like getting offended because someone mentioned Pilgrims in a Thanksgiving movie.
