Cobbled together from bits of pretty much any recent animated feature you'd care to mention, this competent but derivative pretender to the Disney throne will delight those too young to spell deja vu, let alone be bothered by it. The story is a
mishmash of Arthurian legends: The magical sword Excalibur bestows the power to rule Camelot, and when it's snatched by evil knight Ruber (Gary Oldman), a feisty young girl named Kayley (Jessalyn Gilsig) sets off to find it. The mission is also a personal one: Ruber killed Kayley's father and has
kidnapped her mother. Kayley must journey deep into the mysterious Forbidden Forest, where she meets handsome, blind recluse Garre...
