JUSTIN AND THE KNIGHTS OF VALOUR (Theatrical Release UK 2013)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 2.6|5.0 Starsìì

Justin and the Knights of Valour, a wannabe-great-cartoon, tries so hard but just can’t get past its poor script and generally weak presentation. There’s not much here to hold on to. It’s one of those cartoons that people check out in public libraries when there is nothing else left.
