A Knight's Tale
William Thatcher, a low-born 14th century squire replaces his deceased employer as the competitor at a jousting competition. Thatcher wins and decides to continue his new pursuits with the help of his two fellow squire friends. His victories inspire the affection of a female fan, Jocelyn, and the ire of a competitor, Count Adehmar, but Thatcher's ruse is threatened with exposure.

It's as if Helgeland didn't have enough confidence in his own material's basic appeal that he resorted to desperate pandering.

Unmotivated storyline, bad love interest situation, dull leading man, quick plot with no set-up. Lazy movie.

You might find yourself smiling and laughing all the way through it.

A Knight's Tale looks and sounds pretty darned good in Blu-ray.

Slightly edgy medieval tale with rock music.

For all its mainstream exertions, A Knight's Tale is actually something of an experimental melding of old and new.

Instead of pulling young audiences imaginatively back into the past, A Knight's Tale cheapens the process by demonstrating that there's no essential difference between then and now.

Endless jousting tournaments transpire with lots of balsa wood jousting poles splintering across the screen. It's a classic example of a "'what-on-earth-were-they-thinking" movie...

Essentially, it's a screenful of pseudo-medieval popcorn that hits a high enough level of goofy fun to transcend a pretty blatant marketing strategy aimed at the MTV demographic.

The movie promises to rock you, and much of the time it does.

Whipping along at speed, with elaborate camera movements and rousing speeches, this knows how to engage a crowd. It's corny, of course, but a guilty pleasure: romantic, diverting, with mildly amusing modern gags.

The result is half Python, half Ivanhoe -- and not as much fun as either.
