'Arthur' reaction

As far as I am concerned, the historical significance of this movie seems mostly accurate to me. Maybe after some more understanding of the time and story I would be able to criticize some more of the inaccuracies. Initially the movie introduces our main character, Arthur, as a Roman officer. I had thought that historically Arthur was portrayed as a medieval knight so this was not what I was expecting. People and historians think that Arthur was a real person, but his character is a bit elaborated. As this movie shows a man like Arthur would be hard to come by...but this is Hollywood after all.

The battle scenes were very well set up and executed, however some of the elements did not seem realistic. At some points, it seemed too easy for Arthur’s army to kill people. When Arthur’s army teamed up with Merlin’s army in the woods they did not have much dialogue about the battle. In reality there would be much more discussion about this, however it could have been cut out for time purposes. In contrast, Game of Thrones will take a few episodes to develop an alliance between people. Also in the movie Arthur, it was shown to be winter time but everyone was not dressed as so. Finally, I was not expecting Lancelot to get killed at the end of the movie. He seemed like a character who would continue on in the story of Arthur.
