Review of King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017) by Natalie R — 22 Jun 2017

I absolutely loved this movie! It delivers information in much the same way as Guy Richie's Sherlock Holmes, a technique which I am fascinated and enraptured by. The visuals are stunning, if not a bit quick at some moments.

Another thing that had me chomping at the bits was the soundtrack! Holly cow it is amazing. People take for granted what a quality soundtrack can do for story telling. This movie had me laughing and sitting at the edge of my seat at all the right moments.

Now for the long part... A lot of people complain that the movie does not accurately depict the legend, but the thing is, IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A CARBON COPY! Do you have any idea how boring that would be??? It's a movie for heaven's sake, made to be entertaining not necessarily historical.

People had the same problem with "God's of Egypt", yet another underrated film-and this is coming from a real ancient Egypt enthusiast. In other words, enjoy the movie for what it is. If you want something historically accurate then go read a text book!
