Romance is never dead.
3 March 2000 | by (San Diego, CA) – See all my reviews

Romance is not dead yet. In Prince Valiant romance and adventure is very much alive. I highly recommend this to everyone in the mood for comedy, adventure, romance, and fantasy. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.
