King Arthur: The Battle of the Beasts tells the story of when Arthur Arthur (Charlie Hannum) was young, and his father, Usa, was brutally killed by his uncle Fothigen (Jude Lowe), and Arthur took advantage of the chaos to escape along the river, and was found and raised by a prostitute on the way.
Arthur had long forgotten that he had royal blood when he became an adult, until one day he accidentally hit and pulled out the prophesied sword in the stone, only to realize that his fate had already been arranged, and he was about to fight the tyrant Fu Ti Geng to the death
The legendary king of England, Arthur, whose life deeds have been adapted into many film and television works by modern people, including "Sword in the Stone", "The First Samurai", "King Arthur", etc., tv series such as "The Legend of Merlin" and "The Storm of the Holy City".
"King Arthur: Battle of the Beasts" A new version of King Arthur wants to meet the world, although in such a short period of time to launch another epic remake, it is inevitable to look bored or impatient, but the director is after all the person who has fried "Sherlock Holmes" successfully, I have absolute confidence that he can also be this time.
"Arthur: Battle of the Beasts" does not have a particularly innovative bridge in the story, nor is there any major changes, but in the treatment of post-production editing, it is as if it is to smash the creative effort of a lifetime, abandoning the common flow account narrative mode, and changing to fast-paced and suddenly direct and flashback, so that the old story that may be boring or monotonous becomes shining and moving and full of surprises.
"King Arthur: Battle of the Beasts" In addition to Arthur and the villain Vodigen, the other supporting characters are slightly monotonous, although the rebels Bill and Bedwell, both have a certain degree of scene proportions and line dialogue, but there is no impressive bridge and background construction, and the witch who replaced the role of Merlin in the original story, originally expected some surprises in the character design, but was too conservative and mediocre, and failed to stir up a different spark with the male protagonist.
Charlie Hannham, who played Arthur in "Arthur: Battle of the Beasts", is a very successful casting, raising the image of King Arthur to another level, even if some of the behavior is handsome to a little middle two, but the strong muscles and charm of the body make it difficult for your eyes and heart not to be plundered by it, but unfortunately, this film lacks sweet love drama to embellish, and the touching friendship and righteousness bridge is almost zero, so it is more difficult to arouse my emotional identification.
Although "King Arthur: Battle of the Beasts" does not reach the level of classics, and the story content is too common and old-fashioned, under the skillful post-production of director Guy Richie, it has become a unique flavor, which can make a serious and magnificent epic masterpiece a humorous and humorous work without losing its solemn tone.
