Review of Cursed

Cursed (2020)
3/10
Wasted potential
16 August 2020
This show was a big disappointment. The overall production of the show just feels off... It's poorly written and feels like the majority of the actors are just phoning it in and taking that juicy Netflix money. Some scenes even felt like and out and out parody.

I feel like if they created a show with feys and humans without shoehorning the King Arthur mythology into it, it could have been better. (Definitely couldn't have been worse!) The great British hero Arthur is reduced to a thief and a liar. Portrayed by an actor with the personality and screen presence of a brush. And considering Arthur was famous for defeating the Saxons this show skips the entire British invasion of Saxons and Jutes and advances Britain 200 years into the future to the Vikings invasion.

Some of the fight scenes are ok but they do little to redeem the overall production and tone of the show.
