The Kid Who Would be King
Every now and again a kids' movie comes along that just looks really solid. As opposed to the brainless wacky-for-wacky-sake stuff you see in most children's movies. This one doesn't look brainless.
The Kid Who Would be King is about a young boy named Arthur who winds up finding a sword, and he pulls it out of a stone. This take on King Arthur takes place in modern times, and Arthur is twelve. He says so in the trailer.
Merlin is played by Patrick Stewart, but the character is most often "in disguise" as a sixteen year old boy, so he can attend school with Arthur and have more time to train him.
The Kind Who Would be King is rated PG for fantasy action violence, scary images, thematic elements including some bullying, and language.
