Prisoner of Zenda (Animated Version)

Rating:
Summary: Stay Away!
Review: If you love either the book or the classic 1930's movie STAY AWAY. Either is a masterpiece as it's just a fascinating story with swashbuckling, heroism, and an honest hero. Apart from this version. I don't know or care where it's from. All you need to know is that they took "creative license" and now our twins are not interested in the same woman. Instead the hero is interested in an unattached woman... This ruins at least half the point of the story about being honorable even when it means foregoing something you cherish. The point of these stories is to instill honorable characteristics in the young, to me anyway. Without the honor of Rassendyll it's quite impossible. I just threw this away as soon as it became apparent they'd changed the story. Read the book (and the follow up) and watch the classic film. That's enough...
