Notebook Reviews: KING ARTHUR

Antoine Fuqua – 2004 King Arthur is a hugely disappointing production from the usually very reliable Jerry Bruckheimer. This Antoine Fuqua directed film is a terrible cinematic interpretation of the Arthurian legend. The visuals are bland, the [...]

Trailer: THE KID WHO WOULD BE KING – Franchise Starter Or Failed Family Film?

Will The Kid Who Would Be King launch a new franchise, or will it die the same painful death as a dozen other family adventure films which failed in trying to ape the success of the Harry Potter series? If I was a betting man, I’d put the [...]

On the plus side, Guy Ritchie‘s King Arthur: Legend of the Sword has an intriguing cast. Charlie Hunnam, Astrid Bergès-Frisbey, Djimon Hounsou, Aidan Gillen, Jude Law and Eric Bana star in it, but nobody wants this bloody thing. It has the [...]

How Excalibur Connects To BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE

It might seem repetitive for Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice to once again show the murder of Bruce Wayne’s parents (the fifth time since 1989) but it factors into the plot in more ways than just showing what drives Bruce [...]

Blu-ray Review: Clive Owen And Morgan Freeman Ask About LAST KNIGHTS

The last time Clive Owen saddled-up for some medieval Knight action was the Antoine Fuqua directed, Jerry Bruckheimer produced King Arthur. The budget may be lower but the results are pretty much the same for Last Knights. This is a stylish but [...]
