Plot: When the child Arthur’s father is murdered, Vortigern, Arthur’s uncle, seizes the crown. Robbed of his birthright and with no idea who he truly is, Arthur comes up the hard way in the back alleys of the city. But once he pulls the sword Excalibur from the stone, his life is turned upside down and he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy... whether he likes it or not.

 

[Tom]

As far as I'm concerned this is the King Arthur/Excalibur movie to see.
Certainly well made and full of wonderful SFX.
I hope they make more, just like it.

I hope they make more, just like it.

If I'm thinking of the right movie, this one did not do too well at the box office so I don't think there'll be another. People I know who have seen it generally liked it, it just didn't catch on with the mass market.
