Title: The Mists of Avalon
Product review: This film adaptation of the book of the same title starts out promisingly enough, but degenerates quickly into a mess of bland characterizations, boring events, sickly dialogue, unwashed hair and tatooed faces. Battle sequences are brief and not very inspiring, and the legends of Arthur are perversely treated despite a promising premise (the tale as seen through the eyes of its female characters). Arthurian legend is much more entertaining in the likewise made-for-television feature, "Merlin," which delivers in all the places that "The Mists of Avalon" failed.
