Common Sense Says

Entertaining but violent spin on classic story.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that King Arthur has many bloody battle scenes and deaths, with lots of swords flashing and arrows flying. Young Arthur sees his town burnt and knows that his parents have been killed, which will disturb some kids. Several victims of torture are shown in weakened states and refer to machines of torture. Two characters have a sensual scene with nonexplicit sex. Characters talk about women, sex, and their physical attributes. Arthur's men drink to celebrate and to mourn loss. A peasant woman is shown on the verge of being raped by a Saxon. Iffy joke made by female lead referencing rape. Occasional mild profanity: "piss," "bastards," "ass," "arse."
