A Knights Tale? Yes or No?

[Ethan_hunt]

I know it's fairly old already, but I really, really liked this movie. Am I stupid, or did others find it as cool as I did. I think Heath Ledger is a very good actor as well. Looking forward to his future movies.

[Dione]

I love love love this movie. I bought it on DVD the day it came out. It was my second favorite movie of the year (after Moulin Rouge, of course!). I love the commentary on the DVD...so funny.

[raidintombs]

I loved this movie too and definitely thought (and still think) about purchasing it for the collection :D

[SamuraiiSam]

No, No, Nooooo. This movie bit the asphalt. It was completely un-original and the flow of the story was absurd. Bah. The rock and roll songs in the movie were strictly there for money making. Every aspect of this movie was generated from money grubbing producers.

I really liked this movie. The humor was good and I will admit the rock music was a little strange, but it was nicely placed. Plus Heath Ledger is hottie :D !

[Doomsday]

I didn't see it, I wanted to, but after a while and seeing more of the previews, I just decided to skip it.

[Oj]

It's alright. But it is still just a simple, pop culture film. Still, it has some bad ass scenes.

[kryptonian_boy]

A Knight's Tale was, for me anyway, similar to watching Tomb raider, in this way: the movie's star played their part well, the rest of the movie sucked. Big time.

[w00master]

Ughhh....

Crap crap crap.

w00master

[PalaceDogg]

this movie proved my theory that Queen was huge in Midiavel(sp.) times.

[JBond]

I thought it was an awful, awful movie. I'm sorry

[sniktawt]

I loved it.

[HellaGood]

This is my favourite movie :)

[PsYkOoOoO]

Its not bad.:)

[ambrosia]

While it looks like fun times were had by all in the cast, the movie fails to share such hardy times with the viewers. Got to say, the rock music, cliche romance plot and demonised villain made this movie not so much bad, as unwaveringly predictable.

Not my cup'o'tea.

[Tara]

I liked it, the first time. But then again, i have seen it about a billion kajillion times. It is my brothers favourite movie, he watches it alot. We used to be able to quote 3/4 of it between the two of us. Yep, it is true, we tested it on a train.

[sphericthor]

I haven't seen the entire movie yet although it did seem decent for what I have seen, can't really pass judgement on it at this time

[droidguy1119]

It was alright the first time, but I saw it a second time and didn't like it so much, except for Paul Bettany.

[secant]

Yes.
Very fun and rewatchable. It's not supposed to be anything more than entertaining, so it doesn't try to be. And I love the outfits they pick out for Shannon Sossamon.

[sniktawt]

I like the "Nike" Reference and stuff like that that they threw in.

Shannon Sossamon is so gorgeous in those outfits!

[sniktawt]

The Villain , COUNT ADHEMAR OF ANJOU , played by the awesome Rufus Sewell is great too.
Altho not used much.

[HellaGood]

He's just so evil!

[sniktawt]

A real Prick.

He's great in Dark City too.

[HellaGood]

Cool, I've not seen that. Is it worth a watch?

[dustindame]

This was an alright movie but nothing to spectacular.

[Dilophosaurus89]

How dare they use Queen's song "We Will Rock You" for this rental/date level flick. I'm glad I didn't pay to see this in a theatre.

[Garnet Spring]

I liked it, to my suprise.

7.5/10

[Kitty]

would not reccomend this movie to anyone. didn't like it.

[JohnnyBgood]

It was lighthearted and fun, I enjoyed it...

[UnicornBlood3]

I really like this movie :D

Damn she looks like Angelina Jolie.Imo anyways.

Queen is my favorite band of all time and I had no problem with their songs being used.
I even liked Robbie Williams Version of "We are The Champions" and I 'm not big on anyone messing with Queen's Stuff , but those tunes fit what Helgeland was trying to do.

[dustindame]

She does look like Jolie. I never really noticed that before.

[PsYkOoOoO]

She looks beautiful from some angle and looks weird from another.

[sniktawt]

Yeah I think it's the outfits some are Cute on her and some aren't and it takes from her looks.Also My creencapper semmed to work like crap today so that may explain it.
But She does Look like Jolie.
Image a film with Portman , Knightley , Jolie and Sossaman , along with the Olsen Twins , lol.

[Colorado Cajun]

I love this movie!!!!

It's outstanding

[sniktawt]

I knew you'd like it Mat , It's wrestling we don't agree on.lol.Movies we usually are the same,

Anyone ever see Roar , The short lived Mideval 1997 Fox Series , Heath looks almost the same on it as he does here.

[Colorado Cajun]

I saw it and he does look the same

[cerealkiller182]

i thought this movie was excellent

[Mat]

Overused rock songs, ok choreographed fights, mediocre plot, some funny moments=

C

I am sick of "We will Rock You." If I hear it again, I shall have to destroy the device that is playing it.

[sniktawt]

LOL...The tag was even "He Will Rock You";)

[moviecub]

I really enjoyed this movie. I'm a Medieval fan at heart so I might be a bit biased. However, to me A Knight's Tale is an entertaining
romp and has what so many movies past and present lack, and that is repeatability.

[moviespud]

I love the movie. I find it very charming and a lot of fun.

[sniktawt]

And Sossaman is hot!;)

[sgr818]

I enjoyed the movie. There are good amounts of action, romance, and comedy spread throughout it. Kind of puts a modern twist to the classic tales of knights competing.

[secant]

I think... need to check... Count Ademar was also Fortinbras in Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet...

No, it's not the outfits it's the makeup and her complexion which isn't the most photogenic but probably gorgeous in real life. She has a lot of yellow tone in her skin which is really not so good on camera...
Neat Pics, my favorite is the one with the hat with a brim, it's sort of My Fair Lady...

[FilmJerk]

movie sucked

[Andy_R]

I'm surprised to hear how many people like this film.
I didn't get it.

The movie started with Queen's "We will rock you" complementing a jousting match.
I was into it at that point. After that, the movie left me hanging.
I was expecting a spoof/slapstick comedy, but the film never makes up its mind which way it wants to go, and ends up in the middle of nowhere.

[sniktawt]

I think it knew where it was going , Helgeland Tongue in cheeked the whole film.
He had over excitable Opponent Announcments, Kids and fans with Painted FACES , Beer Hats , Rock Music , I think it knew where it stood.
It's not a Mel Brooks film but it never pretended to be that either.
Think of it as a Semi-Serious Men In Tights.So to speak.

[Andy_R]

I see your point, but it just didn't work for me.

[todd philip]

this movie is okay

**1/2 out of *****

[RudyCurien]

Any movie with Heath Ledger in it is a waste.

[sniktawt]

Heath is great.
His Turning down Spidey was a blessing tho.
Tobey is better.

[rayzor09]

this movie rules. case ****in closed

[sniktawt]

Thank You Rayzor.
It does rule!!!

[Mat]

Heath Ledger was great in Ned Kelly.

[sniktawt]

Yep he was and he was great in 10 Things and The Patriot.

[Fanible]

7/10

It was a fun film.
