19. King Arthur: Legend of the Sword – The Birth of a Mythical King

Guy Ritchie's King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017) is a gritty, modern retelling of the classic Arthurian legend. Arthur's transformation from a street-smart outcast to an Excalibur-wielding king defines the man vs. myth storyline. The film explores how myths are made through personal sacrifice and destiny, as Arthur fights dark magic, mythical creatures, and his doubts. While the film presents a new and stylized vision, it does not lose the essence of Arthur's enduring legend, which shows the human strength required to carry the burden of myth.
