Atom User Reviews for The Kid Who Would Be King
Save your money
I fell asleep....smh
A cool message for kids in standing up and cooperative efforts.
There were demons and darkness and lots of scary scenes. Not for kids under 10.
probably one of the best kids movies I'd seen I a while. motivating. without talking down to them.
My son &I enjoyed the movie. It had a positive message which the writers was trying to convey. I did feel that it was probably a little bit scary for the younger kids with the demons and the violence
Very scary for kids. Not a family movie.
The action pase varies but in all an excelent move.
SUCKS and BORING!

Entertaining for kids, Comedy for adults. 4-stars.
My whole family loved this film; however, my ten-yr-old thought the villains were a bit scary and she spent a good deal of the movie with her face covered in my shoulder. But otherwise it was fantastic.
Good family night movie a little long but solid.
Really good family movie with healthy messages while being a lot of fun.

WOW! Now this is truly a FAMILY MOVIE!
Enjoyed the movie with friends. A little slow but a good movie overall. Interesting all around.
Really cool movie
I took my 9 year old sister to see this movie. She really liked it; some of the scenes scared her but it didn't bother her too much. I thought it was a creative movie. A little slow at times but otherwise it was very good.
This was a cute, family friendly movie.
Really good movie! Must see
I love how the story went for sure a must see again.
Great message for the kids!
Metacritic
The film hums with energy anytime Merlin is on-screen, but even when it’s in the hands of its very sweet preteen ensemble, it’s a lively watch.
The action is creatively staged, without ever getting too intense or scary for young viewers. And the script balances humor, pathos and wish fulfillment as it portrays Alex’s rise from mopey dreamer to confident warrior, without overdoing the mythic portent.
Director Joe Cornish grounded the alien-invasion genre with clever plotting and entertaining English youngsters with 2011's “Attack the Block” and does the same with epic fantasy with this clever “Kid.”
