Mythical film proves to be king of kings

The critics may have dismissed it, but Antoine Fugua's King Arthur, which was shot mainly in Ireland, has proved a Box Office hit throughout the British Isles, especially in Ireland.

Starring Clive Owen, Keira Knightly, Ioan Gruffudd and Ray Winstone, the Round Table epic earned $3.5m (€2.9m) - €283,230 in Ireland - from its opening weekend.
