don't fall for the hype

Rating: 4/10 (5 June 2016)

You know something is wrong if you cant wait for a movie to finally end. There are way too many meaningless plot lines interwoven with the main story, turning the movie into a convoluted mess without a guiding thread.
What was left of my immersion was easily butchered by the performances of Dominic Cooper and Ben Schnetzer. Apparently Cooper wasn't sure if he had to play a king or a very bored weather forecast, while Schnetzer seemed to be simply not able to bring any depth into his acting. Whatever happened on screen, he was the goofy sidekick.
Nevertheless the movie has its moment. Watch it if you want to see superb cgi and have low expectations for anything else.
