Okay Film, Bad Execution

The believability of King Arthur was okay. I felt the character, Gwenevere was more sexualized than she should have been. She wasn't a character, if anything she was annoying. Also the broken finger bit made me angry because her hand still wouldn’t be able to use her hand at all let alone have perfect aim on a bow and arrow.
I loved the costuming, but most importantly I loved all of the Knights and their friendship was probably the most believable thing in the entire movie.
I know many would not agree, but personally my favorite part of the whole movie was the ice scene, not because of its believability, but because of how cool it looked. Aesthetically speaking, the aerial shot of the knights shooting the bow and arrows and hitting nearly every one of the Saxons was beautiful to watch.
In all honesty I was confused by Merlin’s character because I wasn’t sure if he was actually important to the story, it didn’t seem like he was even doing anything besides attacking Arthur which wasn’t even explained in the plot. Overall King Arthur was a good movie, a bit confusing at times as to who was who in the beginning but overall an aesthetically pleasing film, but just a really bad execution.
