Acclaimed filmmaker Guy Ritchie brings his dynamic style to the epic fantasy action adventure “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.” Starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, the film is an iconoclastic take on the classic Excalibur myth, tracing Arthur’s journey from the streets to the throne. When the child Arthur’s father is murdered, Vortigern (Jude Law), Arthur’s uncle, seizes the crown. Robbed of his birthright and with no idea who he truly is, Arthur comes up the hard way in the back alleys of the city. But once he pulls the sword from the stone, his life is turned upside down and he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy…whether he likes it or not.

  1. shame this didnt do better. it was actually a great movie. wish we could get a second with the knights of the round. a good twist on some basic Arthurian legend. good music and the first time ive seen Excalibur actually be badass in live action.

  2. I didn't see any matrix style fight scenes. the story (c'mon) it's there. with some holes.
    plot+direction+story+ production.
    = a fantastical story presented by a "modern" story teller.

    I can't hate on it. But, can we see Madonna get killed next time?
