carry on Excalibur

Rating: 1/10 (5 November 2007)

Perhaps unintentionally the funniest films I've seen this year. Brilliant mis-casting,laughable plot and truly abysmal story. Somehow it manages to make knights of the round table with Richard Gere look hard hitting and gritty. I watched it with an open mind, but my partner watched it with me and was obviously expecting something like Gladiator. Within 15 minutes her comments were 'this looks like a TV series' and 'is it supposed to funny?' So why does Hollowood and the film industry consistently get the Arthurian legand so terribly wrong every time? Richard Gere in KOTRT,then Clive Owen in Arthur now this tripe. The baddies(the Goths)in this film are the funniest I've ever seen. I would think that the established actors who appeared in this hilarious farce must be laughing all the way to the cash point.
