King Arthur: Legend of the Sword [4K Ultra-HD] [2017] [Blu-ray] [Region Free]

*** This review may contain spoilers ***This arrived on Bluray Monday and we sat last night with no expectations to watch. From the opening sequences to the end this is an excellent movie, humorous in places in that way the Guy is know for but action packed. It moves away from the usual romantic image of Arthur and in its place gives us a man who is the opposite of a hero. He does not want his birthright he is quite happy ducking and diving, running scams and schemes whilst protecting the brothel and the inhabitants that rescued and raised him.I thought Charlie was very good match for this role, he looses the odd American accent he has and what comes out is good east end boy. For me this gave him a role to actually grow into as I am going to assume there will be more films in this franchise.The cameo by David Beckham is excellent, the expression on his face was worth it!

Brilliant film

As a long-time lover of the King Arthur legend I put off watching this film due to how it was panned by all the critics. Now I've watched it, I love it. O.k. it veers away from the traditional legend as we know it but Camelot, the Lady of the Lake, Excalibur are all there. I'm sure the other elements would have come in, in the planned sequels. I thought Arthur was a strong character and the Sword Excalibur was a character in itself, the battle scenes with it in action were amazing. I also liked the depiction of the Lady in the Lake and the Mage who helped Arthur. Overall a very entertaining mythical, medieval, action packed film, the sort to make You feel good after You've watched it. I would have loved to have seen the sequels and where Guy Ritchie would have gone with the tale.

Saw this on a flight recently and it made me realise how terrible the marketing was for this film as I enjoyed it far more than expected. It's a high fantasy take on the Arthur legend and despite a relatively small budget pretty good effects. The Lock Stock style of characters does give it a very British feel but I do wish Guy Ritchie could imagine a world that wasn't entirely faux cockney for a minute. Worth a watch.Enjoyable film and now the bluray is so cheap well worth supporting British movies.

Thank you

Yes it was panned by some, but I thoroughly enjoyed it, it was great that somebody grabbed hold of the Myth, because that's what the legend of King Arthur is, a myth and they didn't try to go down the "Well we have narrowed the who was King Arthur search down to a dozen people, that's if he even existed, so lets make a historic film" avenue..I'm looking at you monotone Clive Owen and that god awful King Arthur film!! It's Disney's Sword In The Stone + Game of Thrones + mixed with Lock Stock + Some "Geezers" + loud music and sounds (Brilliant through quality headphones) and then add an over the top Jude Law and you get a great popcorn movie, if you watch this with a "Oooh this isn't King Arthur" then you'll hate it, everybody else, just watch the spectacle.

Nice movie... very entertaining

So outrageously underrated .
