Merlin, now an elderly man telling his life story, explains how Britain was faced with rulers and invasion that are increasingly destructive to its own people. Queen Mab seeks to reclaim her power by drawing people back to the "Old Ways". To do so, she creates a wizard named Merlin, whom she intends to champion her crusade. After Merlin's mother dies giving birth to him, his guardian Ambrosia tells Mab she is too cruel and cold to raise Merlin, and Mab agrees that Ambrosia will bring him up until Merlin's powers emerge, when Mab will send for him.

Years later, a teenage Merlin recounts to Ambrosia how he has rescued a nobleman's daughter, Nimue, in the forests near their home by magically growing a small branch. Ambrosia tells him of his past and he is sent to Mab to begin his training with Frik, Mab's gnome servant; however, Merlin has little interest in helping Mab's crusade to restore the Old Ways, angering her. Merlin finds out from the Lady of the Lake that her sister Mab let his birth mother die and that Ambrosia is ill. Mab reaches Ambrosia's home before Merlin, but when Ambrosia refuses to convince Merlin to return to Mab, Mab lashes out fatally injuring Ambrosia. Ambrosia tells Merlin before she dies that he must follow his heart. Merlin tries to attack Mab but can't defeat her; she dismisses the deaths of his mother and Ambrosia as "casualties of war" and vows that Merlin will help her in her quest for power. Merlin makes a blood-oath never to use magic.

Many years pass. Merlin is brought before the tyrant King Vortigern who is having problems constructing his castle, which keeps collapsing. Merlin calls the king stupid for believing what he was told by a soothsayer. Merlin tells the king his vision: a red dragon representing Uther Pendragon, defeats the white dragon that represents Vortigern. Mab tells the king that he can vanquish Uther by sacrificing Nimue in the hope that Merlin will break his vow not to use magic. Merlin uses magic to save Nimue from the fire of the dragon and Nimue is sent to Avalon to recover from her burns. Merlin asks the Lady of the Lake for help, and she gives him the magical sword Excalibur.

Merlin warns Uther of Vortigern's intention to attack him under the cover of winter; Uther heeds Merlin's warning and confronts the king on a frozen river. In the ensuing battle, Merlin duels Vortigern with Excalibur, using the sword's magic to open up the ice beneath Vortigern's feet, who plunges into the river and drowns. Merlin gives Uther Excalibur.

Uther becomes obsessed with Igraine, the wife of Gorlois, Lord of Cornwall. Merlin tricks Uther out of the sword and plunges it into the Rock of Ages, who promises to keep it until a good man can withdraw it. Uther's mind is plagued by madness and lust, and Britain slides back into civil war. Merlin strikes a deal with Uther to bed Igraine in exchange for guardianship of the son born from the union, and for Gorlois and his men to be spared. Merlin transforms Uther's appearance into that of Gorlois. Uther enters the castle and has sex with Igraine. Igraine's disfigured daughter, Morgan le Fay, is the only one who sees through Uther's disguise. Uther betrays Merlin and has Cornwall and his men slaughtered. While Igraine is in labor, at Mab's behest, Frik convinces Morgan to place a black stone beneath the baby's sheets in his crib. Igraine gives birth to King Arthur but at the cost of her own life. Mab then confronts Merlin, proclaiming Arthur to be damned, but Merlin vows to raise him in the ways of good and hopes Arthur will help bring her down.

Arthur, who is unaware of his heritage, is tutored by Merlin. Meanwhile, Uther commits suicide, which leaves the kingdom in turmoil over who will be the new king. Merlin informs Arthur of his rightful place as the only son of Uther and true heir to the throne. Mab attempts to kill Arthur by unleashing a pack of griffins; Merlin foils the attack by directing a swarm of bees to drive the monsters off. With the throne vacant, the noblemen in the kingdom try to take Excalibur from the Rock of Ages, but none can. The Rock allows Arthur to pull out Excalibur.

Merlin presents Arthur to the gathered nobility; while most accept his claim, a handful, led by Lord Lot initially refuse to accept Arthur as King. However, Arthur is able to convince Lot and his allies of his rightful claim to the throne. Merlin leaves, thinking the kingdom is finally at peace, but Mab instructs Frik to seek out Arthur's half-sister Morgan (Helena Bonham Carter), and poison her mind by making her beautiful, and has her seduce Arthur, who is unaware of their relationship. Merlin races back to Camelot to confront Arthur. Merlin tells Arthur that Morgan will give birth Mordred (Jason Done), whom Mab raises to become Arthur's downfall. Mordred grows at an abnormally fast rate. Arthur starts construction of his castle of Camelot and marries Guinevere.

Arthur decides to take his knights on a quest for the Holy Grail, so he holds a tournament to crown a champion who will be given the duty of defending and completing Camelot in his absence. The Lady of the Lake vows to guide Merlin by boat to a "good man" worthy of being Camelot's guardian. Merlin finds a boy, Galahad, by the riverbank in front of the estate of his parents, Lancelot, a skilled rider and swordsman, and Elaine of Astolat, Lancelot's wife. Merlin brings Lancelot back to Camelot, where he then wins the tournament. In Arthur's absence, Guinevere and Lancelot embark on a love affair. Mab makes sure Elaine can see his betrayal, and she is found dead at the shores of Camelot not long after. Merlin accuses Lancelot of killing her and he flees Camelot in his guilt and shame. Arthur and his knights return, their quest a failure.

Mordred makes his presence as Arthur's son and heir known and reveals Guinevere's betrayal to all. Outmaneuvered by Mordred, Arthur is forced to condemn her to be burned at the stake for treason. Midway through the execution, Arthur changes his mind and begs Merlin to save her, so Merlin makes it rain, which saves Guinevere long enough for Lancelot to fight his way into Camelot and ride off with her.

Mordred confronts Arthur who denounces and banishes him. Mordred raises an army among those dissatisfied with Arthur and Merlin. Meanwhile, Frik and Morgan have fallen in love after Mab's magic makes them both beautiful. When Morgan refuses to allow Mab to further use Mordred for her own ends, Mab kills her with Frik watching. Frik holds the dying Morgan and they revert to their true ugly forms, but they both call each other beautiful anyway, and she dies in his arms. When Frik vows revenge on Mab, she takes his powers away, and he later joins Arthur's army.

Mab lures Nimue into a wilderness and removes the scars from her past injury, explaining she wishes to keep Merlin out of the way, so he cannot intervene in the battle to come. Wanting to be with him, Nimue agrees and sends for Merlin. He comes but senses a trap when he realizes that the idyllic paradise they are in is Mab's creation. However, Nimue convinces him to stay. Meanwhile, the armies of Mordred and Arthur prepare themselves for the Battle of Camlann. Many on both sides are slain, and Arthur defeats Mordred. Mordred deals Arthur a fatal blow before Arthur kills him.

Knowing his protégé is dying, Merlin leaves Nimue to go to Arthur; however once he leaves, the magic of Mab's creation seals itself behind him, parting Merlin from Nimue. At the battlefield, both Mab and Merlin witness the deaths of their protégés. Mab's magic is unable to save Mordred while Arthur lives long enough to tell Merlin to return Excalibur to the place it was found so no one else may wield its power. Arthur dies as Merlin gives back the sword to the Lady of the Lake. She is slowly dying as the Old Ways are being rejected and forgotten. Merlin accuses her of lying to him about the guardian of Camelot, but she explains that "it was the boy, Galahad" who was the true guardian and could have averted all this, though she assures Merlin that Arthur's death is not his fault. Merlin encounters Frik among the survivors of Arthur's army, who warns him that although Mab is greatly weakened, she is still dangerous.

Merlin confronts Mab at Camelot but the ensuing magical duel ends in stalemate. Mab sneers that she is invulnerable to conventional means of destruction, but Merlin responds that everyone ignoring her will led to her defeat. Mab slowly fades into nothing as Merlin, Frik and the entire court of Camelot turn their backs on her and walk away.

Merlin is again shown back in the "present" telling his story. Frik appears and tells Merlin that Merlin's version is not what Frik remembers. Merlin replies that people will believe his version. After Merlin finds his aged magic horse, Frik reveals it will lead him to Nimue. When Merlin asks how, Frik says that some time after Mab had disappeared, the spells she had cast has lost their effectiveness, and Nimue was set free. Merlin finds Nimue at Ambrosia's old forest home. Both lovers, now old, are transformed to younger days by Merlin's last act of magic to live out their lives together.

The film was produced by Dyson Lovell and directed by Steve Barron. The story is by Edward Khmara with the teleplay written by David Stevens and Peter Barnes.

Illustrator Alan Lee served as the film's conceptual designer. Despite heavy fantasy elements, the production is historically accurate to a degree, in keeping with the probable origins of the Arthurian legend in Sub-Roman Britain. The costumes and props used in the film include Dark Age or Early Medieval Celtic and Roman-style weapons (e.g. Iron Age swords) and armor (e.g. mail, scale and leather), while other Arthurian films like Excalibur, Knights of the Round Table and First Knight use High Medieval or Late Medieval-style weapons (e.g. longswords) and armour (e.g. full suits of plate). However, some anachronisms are present, like the use of the terms "knight" and "Sir" and the presence of the Roman lorica segmentata armour years after it was discontinued. During the conflict between Vortigern and Uther, Uther is said to be invading from Normandy, despite the film taking place long before the age of the Vikings, and thus of the Norman colonization which gave Normandy its name.

Nicholas Clay, who plays Guinevere's father Lord Leo, and Robert Addie, who plays Sir Gilbert, both appeared in John Boorman's 1981 film Excalibur, as (respectively) Lancelot and Mordred. Paul Curran, who played the adult King Arthur, played Kay alongside Jason Connery as Merlin in Merlin: The Quest Begins, an unrelated television film released the same year.

Merlin has an 80% rating at Rotten Tomatoes.
