We're talking about King Arthur here, not the Battle of Hastings. We have next to no information - so far as I know - on the "historical King Arthur". So... expecting it to be real history would be unfair.
Admittedly, the record is scant, but one could fill it in with historical and reasonably plausible inference or one could fill it in with hollywood, and likely gloss over even what we do know with more hollywood - I predict the latter. Not that it won't be a good movie, I loved First Knight, which had a decidedly different take on the whole legend, but when the film is hyped up and advertised as the "real" story, it irks me knowing it will be nothing of the sort. I love historical movies - or rather, I love it when they get things historically correct. If they aren't going to do so, that is fine, but then they should so state - inspired by history rather than telling it.
