Eh.

RDJ makes almost anything watchable.

Tuff Turf for example?

What if, hypothetically speaking mind you, someone was quite intoxicated at the time of viewing?

I don't think you'd be able to tell one way or the other, because the movie would have a sober man thinking he was drunk and a drunk man thinking he isn't drunk enough.

That sounds like a challenge.

This was, in fact, the case.  Not me, but someone.  She was also of the view that this was the worst movie we've both seen in quite some time.

If you're hoping for Excalibur (but actually good, by today's standards) I can see how you'd be disappointed.  If you're flicking through channels and this just happens to be on, I don't understand how it's generating so much hate.  It's not terrible, it's not great.  Just pretend that it's not King Arthur (because it really isn't).  Maybe it's Art's cousin, in another big city in England. 

There is much, much worse on virtually any channel, at any time of day.  It definitely does have a 80's MTV vibe to it, and since I watched a lot of MTV and Miami Vice I wasn't put off by that, but I could see how if you wanted Morte D'Arthur and no-MTV IN your Arthur, how that would be disappointing.

I thought it was fun enough and I liked the design of the Final Boss.  It's a little cliche how all these video games teleport the player to a tiny arena for the last fight, though.
