Review of King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017) by Jak-Luke S — 23 Jul 2017

Peter Jackson's scale and Snyder's wet dream, Ritchie succeeds in dosing King Arthur with ecstasy and it's never been better. A rather strange combination of Ritchie's style/aesthetic with such a specific and confined lore sounded somewhat troubling, yet both compliment each other rather well.

Ritchie's storytelling and edit work well within the story as does the lead Hunham, who is edging closer to being more and more comfortable in film. Law plays an equally as impressive villain in true over the top fashion.

However, the over indulgence and reliance on CGI does tarnish what could've easily have been pratical effects.
