King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword (2017) No way we'll spend any long amount of time discussing this one........we're already in mourning for the 2 hours of precious life that we wasted watching it.......
Not one single sentence will we waste on the writing, acting or direction......it's another film produced mainly in a warehouse covered with green walls......some flesh-and-blood actors in costumes.....the rest of it......digital garbage added later. Enough said.
In other words a punishment from hell, another 150 million dollars or thereabouts flushed down the drain, swirling around in the bowl along with the feces that constitutes the film it financed......
This movie does serve one purpose: It's the ground zero of the nuclear devastation from all of the overpriced 'comic-book-franchise-tentpole-blockbuster' abortions disgorged by major studios.
It doesn't get any worse than this. Graduate film school students can study "King Arthur" the same way that medical school students dissect corpses.
Everything's laid out on the table to examine.......mincemeat editing, dopey sound-bite dialogue.......and acres and acres of CGI.
Of course, the inevitable CGI......a movie not so much made by its supposed writers and director.......more like a movie entirely mouse-clicked together by hundreds of people sitting in front of hundreds of computer terminals......
The computer mob briefly captured everyone's attention by throwing in elephants the size of construction cranes. Whoop-dee-doo.
Okay, we already frittered away more time than we wanted to on this dung heap. Zero stars....The Big "O". To paraphrase one of the final lines of "The Haunting".....this should be buried.......and the ground sowed with salt.
