An entertaining, but weak attempt

Rating: 5/10 (24 December 2004)

I saw the trailer for this movie and it intrigued me. After all, recent Disney attempts at live action (i.e. Pirates of the Caribbean, Hidalgo, Freaky Friday) I've generally enjoyed quite a bit, King Arthur being the exception. But after I saw it, I have to say that it's joined KA. It's generally entertaining and the acting is sound, but the characters are wooden and I didn't like the fact that the main characters were every bit of thieves and liars as Sean Bean and his crew. So, I was disappointed this this film. The special effects aren't even that good. Do yourself a favor and don't shell out 7 bucks for it, just wait till it comes out on DVD if you still want to see it.
