Awful release date. What was WB thinking? And its not like Guy's previous film(Man from UNCLE) where the reviews were good enough to give it some good legs. That won't be happening here.

King Arthur opened at $14.3M, even lower than estimates.

Don't know why they continued to sink more money in reshoots after the first ones had a negative response. This is a swords and sandals film. What swords and sandal film could ever recover from a 170M budget?

Troy might be the exception, not the rule.

What swords and sandal film could ever recover from a 170M budget? Not only that. It's a sword and sandals directed by Guy Ritchie. Just saw the film 2 days ago and it's a fucking disaster train wreck of a movie. It did look very good in 3D but that is the only redeeming quality.

I thought it was alright but I had low expectations. Fantasy and Guy Ritchie may not be the best fit with general audiences. I like most of his stuff a lot, so I knew what I was getting. It isn't like the character of King Arthur is a hot property these days and as other have pointed out, the release date was suicide. This had bomb written all over it, but I personally enjoyed what it did as a film. It's not great, I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to anyone who isn't a fan of Ritchie's style; but I didn't think it was terrible.
What's wild is I heard an interview with Ritchie where he revealed his first cut of the film was over 3 hours. There are parts of the film where I think this shows, and it definitely would've been much different; whether it would've made it better or exponentially worse is up for debate, though.

I might see this out of curiosity. I know some friends who enjoyed the movie and thought it's very low rotten tomato score was a bit harsh.
