Plank Of Wood King

Rating: 1/10 (2 November 2019)

I am genuinely surprised by the amount of overwhelmingly positive reviews for this film.
There are some good aspects. Cinematography, costumes all were well done.
The story, writing, and acting are all over the place.
Are we suppose to feel something for the stupidity of this naive king who invades another country without asking a single, simple, question for any real motive as to why?
Was the ending suppose to be some sort of surprise?
It was obvious from the get go it was all a 'master plan' and this supposedly peaceful, King, who didn't want anything to do with his father does exactly what his father wanted done.
It was even explained in the movie what his fathers regime wanted (invade France and Jerusalem). And so of course this moron king falls for it without asking why he would invade another country over a ball, and a ridiculously obvious planted 'assassin'. Among other stupid reasons that had me shaking my head less than an hour into the movie.
The two scenes where he wants to do some 1 on 1 fighting instead of a full on battle were laughable.
I felt nothing for this character or story
In the end its just a dumb story about a dumb kid, who becomes a dumb king, who falls for dumb reasons to invade another nation.
There is absolutely nothing epic or grand about this movie. I wish the French would have kicked him. The King of England was too stupid to live.
Terrible film.
