       When I first saw the trailer for King Arthur: Legend of the
       Sword, I was intrigued by what I saw, especially when I knew
       that this was going to be a Guy Ritchie film. This was not going
       to be the typical Sword and Fantasy flick. This was going to be
       good and breath new life into the genre. Well, having just
       watched it....er, struggling to get through it, I was very
       disappointed in what the final product turned out to be. Maybe
       there is a reason why traditional is what it is for a reason.
       Guy is a solid film maker with his unique style and flair. But
       it doesn't work in this genre. If you've seen any of his
       previous films, then you're going to recognize his ticks as a
       film maker, which then in turns just takes you out of the moving
       going thread you have with what's happening on screen. It's not
       only his ticks that were too much of a distraction, the story
       itself was a complete mess with horrible editing choices where
       you lose huge chunks of plot just to "move things along".
       Definitely a Skip. 2 Stars out of 5.

       It feels like he should have made Robin Hood and maybe Ridley
       Scott should have made King Arthur... seems like a better
       marriage of talent to the material.
       I had really zero interest in seeing this flick as it stands,
       and it's not that I'm not in the mood for a good King Arthur
       movie, it's just... whatever this was, didn't look interesting.
