Description:
Raised by merlin, young Arthur draws the mystical sword of Excalibur from the stone and becomes King. He grows to manhood and with his wife Guenevere and first knight Lancelot unites the country and founds the Knights of the Round Table. But the love between Lancelot and Guenevere, and the treachery of his sister Morgana and son Mordred cause King Arthur's pride to jeopardize the kingdom. An epic battle between the knights of good and evil decides the fate of Camelot,

Amazon.com essential video:
This lush retelling of the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table is a dark and engrossing tale. Director John Boorman (Deliverance) masterfully handles the tale of the mythical sword Excalibur, and its passing from the wizard Merlin to the future king of England. Arthur pulls the famed sword from a stone and is destined to be crowned king. As the king embarks on a passionate love affair with Guenevere, an illegitimate son, and Merlin's designs on power, threaten Arthur's reign. The film is visually stunning and unflinching in its scenes of combat and black magic. Featuring an impressive supporting cast, including early work from the likes of Liam Neeson and Gabriel Byrne, Excalibur is an adaptation of the legend both faithful and bold. --Robert Lane

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Far better than the trilogy of the ring
The lord of rings movie trilogy was good, but Peter Jackson stole the best of its ideas from Boorman's Excalibur. This one is absolutely my favorite movie of all times. Not a crowd pleaser, anyway, as much as Jackson's: the problem is, those who have no esoteric knowledge will never come to appreciate Boorman fully. The true spirit of knights on one side, the true spirit of sorcerers on the other, are both faithfully represented in Excalibur, like no other movie was able to do. None of the dialogs ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A classic from a most unsual film maker
John Boorman is a hard director to pin down. He can do a gritty crime drama like POINT BLANK with Lee Marvin and then he does a film like this! EXCALIBUR is the finest Arthur film of them all. Forget KING ARTHUR, forget FIRST KNIGHT or even CAMELOT, THIS IS THE ONE. A wonderful cast, including a young Helen Murren as Morgana, Nigel Terry as Arthur. Best performance has to be Nicol Williamson as Merlin. Look for a pre-Picard Patrick Stewart. Beautifully filmed with a truly majestic score, the ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Well stagged King Arthur movie
This movie presents the Arthur movie in terms of the magic sword legend.
It modifies Vivian into Morgan Le Fey and takes several other liberties with the traditional plot, but it is well written , played and fun to watch!
If you likes knights in armor, sorcery and mythical mystical
legend, you'll love this movie.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excaliber DVD
I just love this movie! it is a classic that everyone can enjoy over & over.
