A decent adaptation that was surprisingly accurate to the book. I didn’t like that they changed the ending a bit, but I did enjoy the emphasis they placed on King Arthur. In the end it was just okay, and I would recommend the book over the film.

Did I really just watch this? The plot sounded like something out of The Royal Tenenbaums, so I decided to give it a watch and it was a mistake because it ended very silly like and I felt that it could have been a much better film. I checked on IMDB and it got just okay ratings and now I know why. I wish I had not wasted my time on this film and wished that I would have given another film a watch.
