A waste of time, but even a bigger waste of the talent.

Rating: 2/10 (27 January 2008)

This is absolute garbage. There is so much about this that is a tragedy in that "I feel sorry for the actors involved" kinda way. I don't understand how you get all of these obviously talented (yet not in this) actors to be in this crap. The cast list alone is tremendous. You have Sir Ben Kingsley, Colin Firth, Kevin McKidd (the star of HBO's excellent 2 years only but it was really expensive and the 2nd season wasn't as good as the first show ROME) Peter Mullan, Alexander Siddig (George Clooney's Syriana) and no Aishwarya Rai is pretty but she can't act doesn't add to anything at this point. Terrible run-on sentence I know but back to this so-called movie. I didn't find any of this entertaining and how this even made it past the development stage I cannot understand. The acting is a joke, the script is absolutely laughable, so much of the dialog is so bad you think you're watching "Power Rangers," and last but not least the special effects are as bad as a Saturday night Sci-Fi channel movie! If this is the only movie you have seen on the legend of Excalibur, hurry up and forget it because It doesn't do any sort of justice to the legend. It's tag line is "Before King Arthur, there was Excalibur." Please do not let that fool you. It is the worst movie any of these actors have probably ever done, and it is even worse than an Oscar winner (Ben Kingsley 1982 Gandhi) now has one more terrible movie to add to his resume. The other one of course is the Uwe Boll (the worst director of all time) movie BloodRayne. If you want to see a good film watch "Sexy Beast." Now that is a good Ben Kingsley movie. 2/10
