Product Description

Product Description

The full-blooded version of the big-budget action adventure based on the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. The film, directed by Antoine Fuqua, attempts to place King Arthur within the historical context of his time (around 500 AD), and take into account many more historical and political facts of the era than previous interpretations of the legend. It also dispenses with much of the magic and fantasy that have shrouded events of the period, although Merlin (Stephen Dillane) does feature as a shaman who used his powers against the Romans. Clive Owen stars as Arthur, who, as England falls into chaos after the fall of the Roman Empire, gathers around him a band of brave knights, including Lancelot (Ioan Gruffudd), Galahad (Hugh Dancy) and Gawain (Joel Edgerton), who hope to defeat the invading Saxon armies and restore peace and order to their country. Keira Knightley co-stars as Guinevere.

From Amazon.co.uk

It's got a round table, some knights, and a noble warrior who rises to become King Arthur, but everything else about this revisionist legend is pure Hollywood. That's not such a bad thing if you enjoyed Rob Roy, Braveheart, Gladiator and Troy, and there's some intriguing potential in presenting the "real" Arthur (played by Clive Owen) as a 5th-century soldier of Rome, assigned to defend Roman-imperial England against a hoard of invading Saxons (led by Stellan Skarsgard in hairy villain mode). As revamped history and "archaeological findings" would have us believe, Guinevere (Keira Knightley) is a warrior babe in face-paint and Lancelot (Ioan Gruffudd) is a nonentity who fades into the woodwork. Never mind. Best to enjoy the harsh, gloomy atmosphere of Irish locations, the ruggedness of Owen and his hearty supporting cast, and the entertaining nonsense of a Jerry Bruckheimer production that strips battle-ready Guinevere down to leather-strap S&M gear while all the men sport full-body armour. Hail to the queen, indeed. --Jeff Shannon

Format: DVD
The King Arthur Director's Cut is no better or worse than the theatrical version, having the same strengths - some good character writing, action scenes where you can actually tell what is going on, an interesting background - and weaknesses - plot holes you could drive a Mack truck through, laughable historical errors, idiotic battle strategies and some hideously bad performances. The latter are definitely the biggest problem, with Antoine Fuqua proving more often than not truly hopeless at directing actors. Indeed, KA boasts some of, if not THE worst performances ever seen in a major studio picture. Clive Owen may look the part, but he delivers the lines like a dyslexic reading off idiot boards while fighting a hangover while Keira Knightley's Guinevere is just as pitiful: she's supposed to be a Celtic warrior queen but despite the fact that her people seem to speak Sioux for some reason she sounds like she's been to a rather expensive English finishing school where they teach you to mispronounce words like `cuhnntwee' (country) and `Roahm' (Rome). That wouldn't be so bad if she had even the remotest shred of talent, but none is to be found. Not since Helen of Troy have their been two leads so desperately in need of dubbing by more talented artists. Throw in Ken Stott doing an outta-ray-juss Ay-Taly-Eano accent, Ray Winstone overdosing on the bish-bash-bosh routine he does instead of acting these days and a couple of frighteningly inept child actors and it's a miracle that the film manages to be as much fun as it is. When the characters aren't trying to talk (something only Ioan Gufford seems to be able to do with success), the action is well handled (particularly the battle on the ice) and the film surprisingly good - but with better casting, it could have been so much more.Read more ›

'Arthur' and his 'Sarmatian' Knights have served their time, 15 years of
fighting for 'Rome'
however before freedom is finally granted they are ordered to complete one
further mission.
their task -- they are to travel north into the lands of the 'Woads' to
bring back the 'Pope's' favourite nephew who with his father lives in
an isolated outpost set deep inside 'Wode' territory.
the mission becomes even more dangerous because of a new threat posed by
invading Saxons.
at the outpost they find a compound walled up, among those left to perish
'Woad' 'Guinevere' ( who of course is freed by 'Arthur' )
the 'Saxon' army is not only a threat to 'Merlin's' people in the north.
it is also a threat to those south of Hadrian's Wall behind which the
'Roman' legions are withdrawing.
both those north and south of the Wall now have a common enemy........
the invading 'Saxon's'
perhaps there are one or two 'casting' issues on board however though a
a film of recent years it is an action-packed epic adventure surely well
worth revisiting.
if like myself you have interest in the legend of King Arthur and Camelot
perhaps the one film that closely follows the well known legend and well
worth seeing if you have not yet done so, is the movie 'Excalibur'

A good film, not actuate to history and more effort should of been made to recreate the facts. some great actors in this movie but not sure it's a good role for Kiera Knightly. Would she really of been fighting a war in leather bra and knickers? All the men have body armour and protection from the cold but she walks around in thin dresses or her skimpy leather outfit!!! One of ioan Gruffudds best performances as Lancelot. Clive Owen, Mads Mikkelsen, Ray Winston etc all great entertainment. Shame about the wardrobe department and the history lesson. But a good watch.

I liked a few things about this film, the Dark Age setting, the Scenery shot in Ireland, decent costumes and the sense of a world in crisis.

However the character writing felt inept, There are no interesting character arcs, Lancelot was badly underdeveloped, Clive Owen's delivery was flat and dreary, the dialogue was clunky and the plot didn't engage me, a rescue mission which we don't actually care about. It also contains dodgy writing, our knights must travel 'north of the wall' to find an important Roman family, ignoring the fact that no Roman families would have actually lived north of Hadrian's wall. The bad guys in this piece are the Saxons, cruel and stupid barbarians, lead by a mumbling warlord who needs subtitles to catch what he's saying. As the scene on the ice demonstrates it's a wonder these people ever conquered anything. The film wraps up with a big dumb battle at the end partly obscured by mist into which all 8 stone of Keira Knightley is flung. Watch out Saxons!. Since the Two Towers now it's like every film of this genera has to copy it and have a big battle too.

I like very much Clive Owen and I like Keira Knightley even more, but I hardly managed to finish watching this movie. The story is simply boring, dialogues are dull, action scenes are ridiculous, and the description of Saxons and Britons could as well come from Asterix comic book.

The idea was actually quite good - recent findings confirm that some Sarmatians cavalrymen served in Britannia at the end of Roman empire and some of them probably stayed there, marrying local women, converting to Christianity and joining the fight against the Saxon invaders. Their fighting style and the custom of worshiping God by praying to the swords planted in the ground could really be one of the origins of the myth of Excalibur and the Knights of the Round Table. But the idea was completely wasted by the nonsensical screenplay.

Also, the presentation of early Christian church, as a bunch of slavers and thugs is simply demeaning. The mention of Pelagius and his heresy is interesting, but serves only to further Christian bashing.

After choosing to introduce Inquisition in the history SEVEN HUNDRED years before its real appearance, the director also presented V century Saxons like some kind of Nazis, obsessed with an ideal of Germanic racial purity, which considering the mores of the age is simply a total absurdity.

But all of this I could forgive, if at least the beauty of Arthurian England was shown, the action scenes were good, if there were some interesting dialogues and at least some humour, some drama and some romance - but all those elements are missing in action...

Frankly, do not waste your money and your time - this movie is simply worthless.
