King Arthur
- Rating:
- Director: Antoine Fuqua
- Starring: Clive Owen
- Details: UK / 126 mins (15s).
A gritty, earthy take on the Camelot legend, in which Arthur (Owen) comes to the fore as a representative of the Roman forces, forming an alliance that defeats the invading Saxon hordes. The battle-scenes are relatively bloodless, but the depiction of Roman Britain is impressive in its attention to detail. Worth a look.
