The poster that inflated Knightley's boobs is responsible for mass deception on a scale only rivalled by the pretext for the invasion of Iraq.

The only thing tha could've saved this film was if some kind of prehistoric monster had burst throuhg from underneath the frozen lake and eaten everyone. FOr a film so pained in it's desire to be taken seriously as being "historical" the shear amount of utter bullshit in it is laughable. SInce when did the ancient Brittons invent greek fire urns? And how do the saxons have crossbows? And how do the brittons have longbows for that matter? And why is one of them a samurai? Just. Not. Good. Eno

A real turd. Incredibly poor film.

I enjoyed making fun of this movie more than actually watching it. Otherwise I would've given it even a lower score. Drink every time you see a cliche!

During the huge final battle, there is a lot of dirt flying around. Huge amounts of it. Therefore, my friend and I concluded that an awesome monster truck show was happening just off-camera. I want to see that movie instead.

Zzzz. Even the attractive-and-talented Owens couldn't make this movie more interesting. How a tale of King Arthur could be made boring is beyond me--yet here is proof.

Jerry Bruckheimer "historical" film. Lame action and Keira Knightley is ridiculously skinny and looks nothing like a warrior. Clive Owen is in this, however, and brings it up from single digit rating. Honestly this isn't worth watching.

Some good actors and technical crew utterly wasted on a script as moronic as this.

The epic story of King Arthur was toned down to make it seem more realistic for film for no good reason. If you want to make a great movie about King Arthur, show some respect to the legend, and go all out. The concept was cool, but it might as well have been any random group of knights doing their thing. The fact that it's Arthur leaves much to be desired. Crap!

randomly handsome, and not boring, but not good either.

To say they took liberties with the Arthur legend would be an understatement. First off, they completely left out the Knights Who Say "Ni!", Sir Robin (the Not-Quite-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot), the Rabbit of Caerbannog, and Tim. But otherwise, it kept me entertained.

There are historic mistakes every minute. The only highlight is Keira Nightley, dressed with nothing but a leather strap, fighting an army of bastards in the cold, snowy scottish winter on a froozen lake.

Normally a King Arthur movie plays it straight for a bit before collapsing in on the general inability of filmmakers to mediate the mythic parts of the legend with its more plausible components. 2004's King Arthur dispenses with this trajectory altogether by opening with the question, "What if the knights of the round table were Sarmatians?" For once I'm glad to have a character limit here, otherwise I'd pontificate at length about various facets of this poor outing.

This is honestly one of the worst films I have ever seen. It is just a total fucking mess. The casting, the screenplay, the acting, the action, the editing... its all just a complete and utter disaster. The whole film is full of meaningless rubbish, passed off as a plot. The final battle is laughable, it just looks terrible and has absolutely no style or quality in terms of true artistic content or directorial talent. If you watch this and like it, then you deserve a good hard slap. Awful.

It was a film. I think.

so shallow and towards the end annoyingly boring. cool performance by knightley, though. maybe because she played the only fully formed or...actual...charater.
