Critics Consensus

Putting the Christ story in an approachable frame for children, The King of Kings isn't the most sophisticated example of family animation but makes for a solidly watchable Sunday school.

The film’s on-the-nose approach seems unlikely to win over viewers who aren’t already on board with its message.

A serviceable if uninspired take on a story told countless times in just as varied formats.

The King of Kings leaves you with a sense of wonder and warmth. It’s a film that honors its subject while inviting everyone—believers and non-believers alike—to find joy in its storytelling.

While this certainly isn’t for everyone, The King of Kings has its own kind of mass appeal and carves out a distinct space in the world of animated faith-based storytelling.
