Review title: Mythology without the Magick.
Product review: This was a good attempt. It was probably more historically accurate than any of the plethora of other Arthurian works on film. I have no complaint concerning the quality thespianism demonstrated here. The direction was excellent, the photography was wonderful, and I even managed to appreciate the camera angles, CGI used in fog creation, etc.I don't know about anyone else, but I -like- Magick in my mythology. Magick is in all mythology; even christian. It's called something else, of course, but it's all Magick, just the same.While I enjoyed this attempt, it just was not the Legend of King Arthur I embrace. The Magick and mysticism are gone from it, and it lost all attraction for me. It felt like watching Spiderman with no powers, or Superman when he couldn't fly. It completely failed to capture imagination due to its having none of its own.If you felt like I did, I highly recommend John Boorman's "Excalibur." That was a magickal endeavor in the name of King Arthur.
