DCMP #48-63 - The Sword in the Stone

I'm back after over a month off and it's time for me to review the final film that Walt Disney himself saw through to completion (he died during Jungle Book). Sword in the Stone is a brisk tale Merlin and his attempts to educate a young boy who would become King Arthur. It's light, airy fun, and it never takes itself very seriously. Because of this, there's not much too this movie at all. It lacks the depth of Character to be very engaging. The best Character by far is the Mad Madame Mim. In a film where Wart is a little too bland, and Merlin a little too dumb, Mim is wonderfully insane, and breathe a gust of life into the procedings. There's not much really to say about this movie actually. It's a fun movie for a lazy Sunday, but nothing more. Oh well, still 15 films to go! Up next: Cars
