Leave your thoughts about Excalibur.
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenBeautiful rendition of King Arthur milieu by the master filmmaker John Boorman. |
| Cinemaphile.orgDavid Keyes...one of those great miracles in filmmaking... It's concept of Arthur and the landscape that surrounds him is a benchmark for fantasy as we know it. |
| eFilmCritic.comBrian MckayBoorman picks through the murky haystack of Arthurian legend and finds a golden needle |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeOne of my favorite films of its year, and far and away my favorite of this type of film. (And, yes, I include Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings films in that assessment.) |
| Sci-Fi Movie PageJames O'EhleyThe film based on La Morte D'Arthur by Thomas Malory does actually remind one of passages from that novel. Poetic. |
| VarietyVariety StaffExquisite, a near-perfect blend of action, romance, fantasy and philosophy, finely acted and beautifully filmed by director John Boorman and cinematographer Alex Thomson. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrJohn Boorman's 1981 retelling of the Arthurian legends is a continuation of the thematic thrust and visual plan of his Exorcist II, though the failure of that bold, hallucinatory, and flawed film seems to have put Boorman into partial retreat. |
| New York TimesVincent CanbyMr. Boorman takes these myths very seriously, but he has used them with a pretentiousness that obscures his vision. |
| People MagazineRalph NovakDespite moments of high style and wit, [Excalibur] too often substitutes mayhem for magic. |
| TimeRichard SchickelLove Excalibur or hate it, but give Boorman credit for the loopy grandeur of his imagery and imaginings, for the sweet smell of excess, for his heroic gamble that a movie can dare to trip over its pretensions— and still fly. |
