King Arthur (2004, DVD)

Movie Description
Combining the historical appeal and epic sequences of films like GLADIATOR and BRAVEHEART, director Antoine Fuqua (TRAINING DAY) and producer Jerry Bruckheimer provide a sleek twist on the King Arthur legend. Arthur (Clive Owen), a brave Roman/British Christian warrior who leads his band of pagan knights on missions for the Empire, must complete one final mission before the knights can earn their freedom from servitude and Arthur can return to Rome. Along the way, however, Arthur realizes that the pullout of the Romans will open the door for a crushing invasion of Britain by the Saxons, and he takes it upon himself to fight with Merlin (Stephen Dillane) and Guinevere (Keira Knightley) for the freedom of the British people.


Stunning battle scenes with extensive attention to historical detail rely very little on computer graphics and instead use intricately realistic props, costumes, and scenery. Featuring the largest film set ever built in Ireland, KING ARTHUR features a scale replica of Hadrian's Wall and two complete villages. Haunting music by composer Hans Zimmer completes this story of unselfish heroism, which ultimately provides a satisfying completion to the legend of Arthur and his knights.

    Now this one was a real surprise considering the legends we've all heard about Arthur and his friend Lancelot. The violence was truly the work of Jerry Bruckheimer's producing but you really felt as though these men were fighting for a genuine cause worthy of losing their lives for the sake of others. Clive Owen is the standout front and center character with the rest of the cast merging with his Arthuristic ideals.

      Outstanding version of the legend of King Arthur

    Two thumbs up! This hard hitting action version of King Arthur has more intense action and thrills then any other version of this epic story! Keira Knightley as Guinevere makes this movie more riveting!

    Very good action movie with a new twist on the King Arthur legend.
