If you had a really bad migraine during Return Of The King and passed out, and then went home and watched 10 random minutes of Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, this is EXACTLY what it would look like. Okay, it would help if you were a little bit high, and you were…

Not a bad film
zxki dislikedKing Arthur: Legend of the SwordGuy Ritchie needs to leave the PG stuff alone. I didn't want to believe the reviews but it's so bad. The editing made me feel like I was scrolling through TikTok. This had more useless and oddly timed slow-mos than all the Synder movies put together. The colour scheme looks like theatre and the…
Jack Rooney lovedKing Arthur: Legend of the SwordOne of my all timers. A lot of people don’t like it and I can see why. It’s meant to be an IronMan-esque introduction into a WB cinematic universe that eventually fell through. Regardless, I adore this movie and will always find time to rewatch it.

While this opens strong, accompanied by Ritchie’s signature charm, it quickly devolves into a messy plot resulting in a horrifically bland third act. The final action sequence is atrocious and really leaves a bad taste in your mouth. 2/5
_Sam likedKing Arthur: Legend of the SwordWas alright kinda pissed me off in the first scene when I think it was Uther he jumped off the ledge with his horse and it seemed like the horse died from that height no need to sacrifice that horse

Somehow hectic and lumbering, diverting and dispiriting all at once, this mud-toned medieval pulp largely cleaves to the spirit of Ritchie’s “Sherlock Holmes” series, reducing a fabled figure of British lore to two hours of tough-guy swagger and head-pounding digital thwackery.

Arthur and Vortigern mix it up amid a lot of shenanigans, detours and filler, some bad, some good and all of it disposable.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword isn't a movie as much as a feature length montage of bastardized lore and rejected Game of Thrones pitches.
