Wart is a young boy who aspires to be a knight's squire. On a hunting trip he falls in on Merlin, a powerful but amnesiac wizard who has plans for him beyond mere squiredom. He starts by trying to give him an education, believing that once one has an education, one can go anywhere. Needless to say, it doesn't quite work out that way.

Best Disney Movie ever! Great comedy, great sing-a-long music like Disney did best in the early era and a compelling story.

T.H. White’s work on Arthurian legend comes to life in the Walt Disney animated film The Sword in the Stone. Set in Medieval England, an eccentric magician named Merlin takes an aspiring squire named Wart under his tutelage. There really isn’t much actual story, as most of the film consists of a series of random adventures where Merlin turns Wart into an animal in order to teach him some vague lesson. And, there aren’t any memorable musical numbers. Part of this is likely do to the tone, which doesn’t have much joy to it. Unfortunately, The Sword in the Stone is a disappointing and lackluster film (especially considering the richness of the source material).

For a movie about King Arthur there wasn't a whole lot of being King and way more turning into animals than I thought there would be. Still it is entertaining.

Fond memories of this movie, one of my favourites as a little boy. A beautifully animated funny story with a happy ending. Highly recommended for children!

[6.0/10] *The Sword in the Stone* isn’t quite good. It isn’t quite bad. It’s just kind of there. Nothing in it is objectionable, but it lacks a driving idea, an engrossing story, or some other spark to make it more than an hour and change’s worth of amiable but unavailing content. What it ga More

In an attempt to teach Arthur the importance of education, brains over brawns, and many sequences of being an animal chased by other animals, all of Merlin's lessons seem to having nothing to do with pulling the sword out of the stone and becoming king.

The Sword in the Stone's job seems to be sh More

"Arthur" - rather unkindly nick-named "Wart" is a stable boy with grand ambitions. He wants to be the squire to a bold and chivalrous knight. Those plans are soon up in the air, though, when he has a chance encounter with "Merlin" in the forest and is soon the wizard's pet project. You see, the wise More

Decent watch, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend.

Now it's been a while since I've seen this one, and now I remember why. There just isn't anything in the well in which to return. Sure all the magic is amusing, and the animal adventures are cute, as well as a nice reminder of how g More
