Review of The King (2019) by Dodger — 14 Nov 2019

Disapointed by this movie in alot of ways. Firstly and probably most importantly, its a complete re-write of history, I mean honestly they get almost every single aspect of the story wrong. This lack of basic attention to the history of the time also ties into the second disapointing part, the abysmal battle at the end of the movie, it literaly made no sense at all from a story or tactical standpoint. Unfortunately the movie is also ludicrously long for the minimal story contained within and at the same time felt horribly truncated in terms plot and character development. On top of all this the pacing is extremley stop-start with fairly considerable jumps in character motivation and plot points.

The points i've given it are for the top notch set/prop production and some of the cinematography. Avoid this movie if you care about history and/or your own time.
