The Kid Who Would Be King

THE CAST Louis Ashbourne Serkis, Patrick Stewart, Rebecca Ferguson, Denise Gough

THE STORY Alex (Serkis, whose dad is – yep, you guessed it – Andy) is just your typical 12-year-old, trying to survive the school bullies alongside his friend, Bedders. But all that changes when he stumbles across the sword of Excalibur – and is declared king.

THE VERDICT The legend of King Arthur comes to life in this bizarre but fun reimagining, and adds sparkle to a centuries- old tale. It’s The Goonies for a new generation. CERT PG, 120 MINS, OPENS 15 FEBRUARY
