Review of Excalibur (1981) by Diego E — 23 Jan 2011
Dark, gritty retelling of the King Arthur legend. Not the innocent romantic version everyone is used to, this is complete with blood, gore and magic.
Solid plot, great direction. Decent enough performances from the main actors - Nigel Terry, Helen Mirren, Nicholas Clay and Nicol Williamson. Also includes early-career performances from Gabriel Byrne, Liam Neeson, Patrick Stewart and Ciaran Hinds.
