The first part ("The Sword in the Stone") was lovely and is deservedly regardes as a classic. Great mixture of humour (e.g. most of the knights' behaviour) and serious thoughts (e.g. the talks with the animals).

As for the other parts... I don't know. The change in tone was very jarring to me. Too much preachiness in some parts. The anachronisms seemed to take over. Just not my cup of tea anymore.

Mostly recommended.
