Its also around this point you start to notice the casting, and I'm gonna have to bring this up.
All this kinda leaves you wondering why he didn't do this straight away, and why he even needs an army. There he casually takes everyone out including his arch nemesis Mordred and wins the day. So he casually grabs his trusty sword Excalibur, gallops towards the giant battle elephants by horse taking out all enemies, leaps across a huge drop between Camelot's ramparts and the elephant (the horse presumably falling to it death) and hacks his way into the huge portable armoured mount on top of the elephant. Later on expect giant bats, snakes, rats, a large eagle and a whopping mega gigantic snake that actually eats people, oh yes.īut the other rather silly thing that happens, Arthur's father Uther Pendragon is watching as his army is getting wiped out and Camelot is being destroyed. In the opening battle sequence of this movie I was shocked, gob-smacked! Firstly the visuals are undoubtedly incredible, expected but even still, whoa! But wait what's this? Gigantic battle elephants that wouldn't look outta place in a Lord of the Rings or 300 movie? Yep looks great but literally what the hell? Of course this is just the start of numerous gigantic animals we will see. All of this and much more comes under what is known as Arthurian legend. Along with Arthur other apparent legends have also been scooped up and added such as Merlin, the Sword in the Stone (a different item to Excalibur in some tales), the lady in the lake, the Holy Grail and various knights such as Lancelot. Arthur was supposed to have beaten the Saxons and established an empire over Britain, Ireland, Iceland, Norway and Gaul. The King who is said to have defended Britain against the Saxon hordes in, umm.a long long long time ago. So here in old blighty we have this sprawling legend of one Arthur Pendragon, King Arthur, King of the Britons.
