Critics' reviews

"Starz, however, has re-imagined the doings of Arthur, Guinevere and the gang as a bloody, bodice-ripping medieval soap opera, and the result is surprisingly satisfying."

Glenn Garvin: Miami Herald
"A few key tweaks to the story and Joseph Fiennes' puckish interpretation of the king's right-hand sorcerer keep the legend from getting too stale"

Keith Staskiewicz: Entertainment Weekly
"Unfortunately, lightweight Bower and an even lighter-weight Egerton can't carry a series, let alone a kingdom. Nonetheless, it's still lots of lush, plush, silly good fun."

Linda Stasi: New York Post
"Fantasy epics aren't really my thing, but this stylish, intense series should satisfy sci-fi fans for some time."

Paige Wiser: Chicago Sun-Times
"Fiennes gives Camelot some feistiness and playfulness, and the whole affair is boosted by the fiery Green"

Tim Goodman: The Hollywood Reporter
"This is 'King Arthur Begins' Fiennes seems determined to play the Joker. Whether this interpretation of the sorcerer will cast a spell over viewers is uncertain."

Mark Perigard: Boston Herald
"Best of all is Ms. Green, the Bond girl and Bernardo Bertolucci dream object, as Arthur's sister and rival (known here as Morgan). Her intensity is a good match for the show's gloomy-doomy, psychologizing mood."

Mike Hale: The New York Times
