What is there to say about this movie? Can it even be called a movie? It's more like some poorly made music video or computer game where there's no need for a strong script or acting, just a need for mindless visuals and CGI battles that look like they've been created by some college students that have had a week long bender on various illicit substances.
This film has virtually no redeeming qualities. It doesn't matter whether it's a King Arthur movie, whether it sticks to the tradition or not. This movie could be about anything and it would still be rubbish. It might as well be about anything or nothing as that's all your left with. The story line is garbage, the characters and acting are woeful (except maybe Jude Law as others have mentioned), the action is poorly shot and the CGI is some of the worst ever committed to film. I mean it's worse than bad. Whoever came up with those sequences should be barred from the film business for life. The music is at least interesting, some of it works well but other tracks are jarring and seem totally unfitting for the subject matter on the screen.
No wonder this film was a box office flop and had the studio cowering in shame. Guy Ritchie has had some decent efforts in the past but this is a travesty. I believe it was supposed to be the first in a long line of King Arthur movies the studio planned to churn out. Let's hope another one never sees the light of day. This is a blight on the movie business and humanity.
