A Knight's Tale movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Susan Stark, Detroit News: Take it for what it is and you'll find it quite enjoyable, especially if you're a female between 9 and, oh, 79. Read more
Jane Sumner, Dallas Morning News: Good, clean, chivalrous fun shamelessly aimed at the young. Read more
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star: Basically a thrift-store bin of borrowed ideas and careworn teen cliches, A Knight's Tale executes one of the most drastic wastes of promise this side of a gifted high school slackoff. Read more
Elvis Mitchell, New York Times: The picture itself is good-humored, but bland and predictable. Read more
John Zebrowski, Seattle Times: A meandering story packed with corny moments, mostly dull acting and a star who, hype aside, shares only an accent with fellow Australian Russell Crowe. Read more
David Edelstein, Slate: You might find yourself smiling and laughing all the way through it. Read more
Bob Longino, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Those who like Queen will find the love-and-honor stuff boring while those looking for a touch of Camelot magic will find the hip stuff annoying and mood-breaking. Read more
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: The film's attempt to vary the pace and provide a noticeable dose of romance as a plot alternative turns out to be more tedious than even the jousting. Read more
Louis B. Parks, Houston Chronicle: Spirited but uneven. Read more
Paul Clinton (CNN.com), CNN.com: The results at best are highly uneven, but still interesting. At worst they are strained and repetitive. It all depends on your tolerance level towards gimmicks, and your desire level for something -- anything -- different. Read more
Steven Rosen, Denver Post: Predictable and repetitive. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: This is history made smaller than life, Middle Ages pageantry interpreted for stadium spectators with limited attention spans from the age of Whasssup? ads and foam rubber fingers that scream 'We're Number One!' Read more
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail: A Knight's Tale is a bouncy pop song of a movie, the snappy/happy kind that puts a grin on your face and a tap to your toe, shifting the heart into high and the mind into neutral. Read more
Peter Rainer, New York Magazine/Vulture: 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. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: The movie has an innocence and charm that grow on you. Read more
Bob Graham, San Francisco Chronicle: More often than not, it's fun. Read more
Richard Schickel, TIME Magazine: The result is half Python, half Ivanhoe -- and not as much fun as either. Read more
Geoff Andrew, Time Out: 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. Read more
Susan Wloszczyna, USA Today: May please aficionados of oldies stations and Xtreme sports but few others. Read more
Ed Park, Village Voice: Mulletless postpubescents may find that the uncreative anachronisms kiss more ers than that dude in the Miller's Tale. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: A 14th-century good time. Read more
Rita Kempley, Washington Post: The movie promises to rock you, and much of the time it does. Read more
