There's no consensus on whether King John was a good king. Many consider him to have been a bad ruler, but others think he was effective. Regardless of the presence of dissenting opinions, he tends to be portrayed negatively in the media.
People in the Victorian times disliked King John and saw him as a failure and a villain. They thought he created his own problems and was cruel and a wicked king; the Devil in disguise.
