'King Arthur: Legend of the Sword' is two ****** in one, and one is way better than the other

The trailers are set to pop songs, and emphasize Arthur's upbringing in the mean streets of Londinium. Arthur himself has the body of a superhero (and the camera spends plenty of time leering at it, lest you fail to **tice). The action scenes do that speed-ramping thing.
