Review of King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017) by Flexedacorn — 22 May 2017

Guy Ritchie’s reimagining of the tale of King Arthur may not be the best adaptation, but it was defiantly the most unique. Ritchie's continues direct with his distinct film style of reverse storytelling, prevalent in his other works such as Sherlock Holms and Snatch.

It takes a smooth talking actor to pull this style off effectively, and in that regard Charlie Hunam was perfectly cast for the role. If you are a fan of Guy Ritchies other films you will like this one.

If you are more of a purist for the original King Arthur story then you may want to pass on this one in theaters. Personally I left the theater entertained, with a special nod to Jude Laws excellent performance as the conflicted main antagonist.
