Review: King Arthur: Legend of the Sword

[WillBrink]

Yet another King Arthur movie cuz we needed yet another and Hollywood can't find another legend or topic. Director Guy Ritchie is obviously a fan of the Lord Of The Rings series as the movie opens with huge war elephants attacking the castle and a tall tower with a flame on the top is the symbol and center of the evil that. Visually it feels like LOTR and I expected to see Samwise Gamgee show up. Having said that, it's a unique take on the King Arthur legend, some great CGI, fun dialogue, cool battle scenes, and generally mindless good fun all around, albeit a tad long. Unlike LOTR, you will not be thinking about this movie a few weeks later... B-

Good actors, Good director, solid material. I was hoping for more. I'll wait for it to come on NEtflix

My take is anything at C+/B- rating worth a rental. It's a fun rental to kill a few hours but will not be on your best movies of the year list no.
