Prince Valiant (1954)

An Arthurian Delight

Another good film surrounding the Arthurian Legend. This time the viking Prince Valiant of Scandia is the main focus. The young prince must restore his father back to his rightful throne in order to save his country by overthrowing the evil Pagan tyrant Sligon and restore the Christian faith to his native land. In order to do all that he must become one of the Knights of the Roundtable and uncover who the terrifying Black Knight really is.

It's not an Epic film but right up there with the Epics of the time era. The film has a feeling of a grand scale & story. Set designs & costuming are up to standards along with the cinematography, choreography, stunts and acting. The film is vividly colorful with wonderful clear sound. It's a fun fantasy adventure film that lovers of the Arthurian Legend should easily enjoy.

8.5/10
