King Arthur Vs Alexander

I really enjoyed this movie it was good. Action packed war but not to gory. Plus Keira Knightley is hot, but what does anyone else think about it? How do you think it will compare to say Alexander?

Well since they are totally different stories overall, and in film making style, who knows.

But Alexander has the added bonus of Angelina Jolie smile

I really actually enjoyed King Arthur, fun movie with a beautiful score by Hans Zimmer.

King Arthur takes the cake as worst movie of the year.

If people want to see spectacle and drama they should make a movie about Thermopoli 700 Greeks against 200,000 Persians.

I see good in most movies, I rarely say a movie is extremely horrible.

If there are a few things in a film I like, it's very hard for me to dislike it.

King Arthur I thought was fun, not brilliant, fun.

My friend loved it, interested in the stories of King Arthur, and he was very happy with how they made the movie.

Did you see the same "King Awful" as me? I saw 3 cliched, slow motion, boring "battle" scenes.

Given her latest string of "hits" in "Taking Lives", "Tomb Raider: Cradle of Life", "Beyond Borders", and "Original Sin", this is far from a bonus. It's more like a demerit.

The whole movie was less than mediocre, IMO. It was like "Lord of the Rings Lite". It was very cliched. A bunch of brutish warriors, an opening, middle, and end battle with a bunch of boring filler dialogue in the middle.

Glad someone enjoyed it. Atleast there won't be a sequel.

Any film Angelina Jolie is in she is good, if it's a bad movie like the ones you mentioned, it's always made less painful to watch because she is in it.

Again, it's a bonus that she is in Alexander. smile

If these two movies were playing at the same time, and i had to pick one to see,knowing nothing about the king arthur or alexander history/mythology i would choose Alexander. there are simple reasons that alexander will be a far better movie, This is an experienced renowned director. The filmakers are not trying to be groundbreaking, or artistic through a modern feel.This aspect is'nt always a bad thing, i am all for being creative and innovative, but this formula usually always mixes well with period peices. Alexander is an actual character and not an accepted myth.

I am not saying that alexander will be a good movie, i have my doubts amd am not very enthralled to see it. I believe the cast in this movie is staggeringly overated,but it has a superb director, and with great directing the worst acting can be passed off as good. I bel;ieveKing Arthur had good acting, but unfortunately with a poor script and direction, the movie fell apart disaterously .

yes a film with angelina jolie will definetly spice things up, but i can't believe that many people didn't like King Arthur, I thought it was great. They did a great job with it.

I thought troy and King Arthur were great, I don't see how it was that bad for you.
Troy- was just awesome and I have to give it up for Brad Pitt, he looked buff.
King Arthur- all i have to say is two words Kiera Knightley. Hottie, she is the angelina jolie for this movie

i guess we didn't see the same king arthur, but they had to make troy shorter so they could keep our attention so changing the film was a must

actually i didn't go to see her either, I went to see the movie and I take that as an offense that you would assume that I go to movies for the eye candy. Yes she is very pleasent to the eye but that is not the reason i went to see King Arthur. It was a good movie, yes it was drawn out at times but overall it was a good movie.
