Title: Oh dear, oh dear
Review: Lots of folks who like medieval things recommended this to me, but it seems to suffer from the same plague as the newest BBC Robin Hood: so many blatant anachronisms it is simply unwatchable. First off, trousers? What is the costume department's aversion to hose? And, of course, a mishmash of centuries in the general garb of everyone, like a re-enactors festival. All right, it is about the Arthur legends and where does that really put it in terms of costumes, but pick a century already. Signs on the walls for people to read as well as letters written. Dear, dear. I suppose I don't mind so much the language used, a little updated for contemporary audiences, but with everything else, it's just too much. Why does it have to be so dumbed down? I was only able to get through twenty minutes of it. That's twenty minutes I won't get back.
Is the review positive or negative?
