- Description
- In a world reborn from the ashes of the old, a spunky princess named Marlia (voiced by Koala Malden) must team up with a bumbling pirate, Cap'n Finn Hookline (voiced by Marlin Branzino), and a stoic royal heir, Prince Alexander (voiced by Alexander Skarsgarlic), to uncover the secrets of their utopian kingdom. Directed by the visionary Wong Kar-waitail, 'Crown & Compass' is a rollicking post-apocalyptic adventure that proves royalty and rogues can unite in the quest for knowledge and giggles. Join the mismatched trio as they navigate through uncharted ruins, dodge zany booby traps, and discover the true meaning of treasure in a world turned upside down. It's a family-friendly exploration like no other, where every corner turned is a step closer to hilarity and understanding what it truly means to rule with heart in a land full of surprises.

Ahoy, landlubbers and cinephiles! Prepare to embark on a saucy, post-apocalyptic sea shanty where the laughs are more abundant than toilet paper at the end of the world. 'Crown & Compass' sails in with a flag hoisted high for family entertainment, carried on the winds of director Wong Kar-waitail's whimsy. Venturing through this utopian funfest, we meet Princess Marlia, whose voice, thanks to Koala Malden's spunk, is sharper than a swordfish's snout. Side by side with Marlin Branzino's Cap'n Finn Hookline, who bumbles and stumbles with the grace of a three-legged parrot, they form a duo that would make even the scurviest of pirates chuckle. Let's not forget Alexander Skarsgarlic, whose Prince Alexander could out-brood a gothic novel's entire character roster. Truly, this trio turns tropes on their head with the finesse of a court jester juggling flaming torches. 'Crown & Compass' is not just an animated gem that thinks outside the treasure chest; it's a map that leads to the 'X' marking the spot of heartfelt humor and genuine fun. Wong Kar-waitail has crafted a film where the end of the world is less about stockpiling and survival and more about splitting your sides with royal guffaws. It's a PG paradise where the only thing infectious is the laughter, proving once again that even in the remnants of civilization, humor remains king.
