This review is from: The King and I/Quest for Camelot (DVD)

I feel that 'Quest for Camelot' and 'The King and I' are two cartoons that never really made it famous, yet deserved to! They are both entertaining for children and parents alike, and both have originality.

Quest for Camelot tells the story of a ragtag team of misfits who team together to find Excalibur when it is stolen from King Arthur and gets lost in the Forbidden forest. This cartoon promotes bravery, making peace with the past (the girl must get over her father's death 10 years later and now is against the man who killed her father), that you don't have to be perfect to be a hero (the boy is blind, for instance). It also teaches you that things you mightn't consider blessing really are, but only very well hidden blessings that you have to squint your eyes at, tilt your head to the side, and not blink for a couple of minutes to see the blessing...yet its actually there (an example is the two-headed dragon they make friends with that can't fly, can't breath smoke, and whose heads can't stop arguing with each other).

The King and I tells the story Anna and the King yet in a family version that is fun, entertaining, and has a child-orientated background. The King of Siam brings Anna and her son (and his pet monkey) to teach his children so that his kingdom may become advanced like the others, yet the spoiled king doens't want to let go of many of the traditions that are keeping his kingdom from progressing...such as the law where the royal prince's wife will be chosen for him...something that the royal prince is trying to fight seeing that he's fallen in love with a slave girl (another no-no in Siam). The villan and his teeth-loving sidekick Master Little are rather comical, as are the misadventures they come across.

I encourage both films for children everywhere and I hope that you found this review helpful.
