Feature film from SONY PICTURES HOME ENTERTAINMENT Tutenstein Vol. 3: The Fearless Pharaoh
King Tut-ankh-en-set-amun was revived as lightning hit his sarcophagus in a museum. This 10-year-old mummy has big personality - he thinks he's still the leader of the world. With his trusty companions, Tutenstein sets out to recover his rightful place. Adult Juror Comments: Tutenstein is an interesting and cute character who has fun adventures. Great 2D animation. Some of the characters are frightening but most are fun and inviting and get into circumstances that viewers would find fun. At times it is frightening though, and there are lots of themes based on magic. Character values are embedded in the story. Kid Juror Comments: Enjoyed it. "It was fun and Tut and Cleo do lots of fun things." "Tut is a funny kid who gets into all sorts of adventures. I like that." "The magic characters weren't nice to each other at all." Kids love the boy king and listening to the facts that Cleo provides. They don't realize they are learning while doing this. "I thought the stories were funny. I liked the animation, and I liked the characters."
