King Arthur is the GOAT

While I was watching the movie King Arthur it seemed to be historically accurate according to the time period of when the tale of King Arthur takes place. As many people already know, the tale of King Arthur is said to have occurred in the Middle Ages or "Medieval Times". In the Middle Ages technology was not very advanced and can also be referred to as barbaric in a sense but the movie did a good job of displaying this lack of technology. During many of the scenes that take place during the night the only source of lighting comes from lamps lit with fire throughout the towns and buildings. This may be considered something minor but it's actually very good attention to detail because electricity was not yet discovered then and it makes the film seem more authentic. Another thing that could be considered minor but is very integral to the authenticity of the movie are the weapons. The weapons displayed throughout the movie are very barbaric ranging from swords, knives, crossbows, etc. During the Middle Ages battles were very close quarters, there were no guns. The only long-range weapons mainly used back then were crossbows and the movie displayed that very well when Arthur and his knights faced off against the Axons. I liked the costume designs of the knights as well in the movie, the knights looked exactly what I thought they would look like in my imagination. The metal plated shoulder pads and the worn-down drape clothes captured that knight feel. The only minor criticism I have with the movie in terms of authenticity is that I was expecting bigger constructions throughout the movie such as castles but maybe that's just because I'm used to seeing the more fairy tale like adaptations of King Arthur and his knights.
