The next scene shows Bromley wearing the helmet with the apple still on top of it, having strangely passed through the metal. more

Its one of the best early animated films!!, 3 January 2006
9/10
Author: pam1987_ar from Bahrain

I hadn't watched Swan Princess when I was younger but recently I did and I loved it! I think its so different from the ordinary Disney film...well i heard it's not even Disney so I guess that's a given. But the characters looked different and it has some really nice songs. Especially the first one "This is my idea" which speeds things up from when they're kids to when they're older...its really cute and the song itself is nice. Also its not the typical old animated films where the guy and girl fall in love straight away since they kinda dislike each other when they were young. But after that they just have this beautiful love which is both happy and sad and perfect!! Other than that, far longer than forever is a great song, along with many others. Tons of funny characters - Jean Bob the frog, Puffin and Speed who are Odette's animal friends are hilarious as well as Prince Derek's adviser and his friend. Anyway love it!! A must see classic.
