Justin (Freddie Highmore) dreams of becoming one of the Knights of Valour, but his father Reginald (Alfred Molina) wants him to follow in his footsteps and become a lawyer. After an inspiring visit to his beloved grandmother, he bids farewell to his supposed lady-love Lara, and embarks on a quest to become a Knight. Along the way he meets the beautiful, feisty Talia (Saoirse Ronan), a quirky wizard called Melquiades (David Walliams) and the handsome Sir Clorex (Antonio Banderas), who teach and test him in the ancient ways of the Knights of Valour. Soon, Justin must rise to the challenge when banished former knight Sir Heraclio (Mark Strong) and his army return and threaten to destroy the Kingdom. (Universal Pictures UK)

It must be acknowledged that it has quite a nice visual aspect, but in terms of the story, it's transparent from beginning to end. Nothing much surprises here. The film has enough characters that can be entertaining, but also enough that are rather annoying. And unfortunately, most of them annoyed me. For a European animated film, it’s pretty good and average.
