Critics dismissed **First Knight** as a cliched Hollywood production and they wouldn't be wrong. But as much as the snobby side of me wanted to dismiss the film, I really liked this film. The film flows quickly without any boring scenes. Although the film is a cliched love triangle, I thought it was handled with maturity. Furthermore, I found it refreshing from the usual Arthurian films. It focuses on Lancelot (Richard Gere) as the central focus. Yes, Richard Gere looks too old, too modern, and American. Yes, the chemistry between three principles is tepid at times. But for what it's worth, Richard Gere is charismatic, the sword fights are pretty realistic and not over the top. Sean Connery plays Arthur with dignity and looks amazing. And Julia Ormond is beautiful. But my favorite is Liam Cunningham (best known as Davos "the Onion knight" from **Game of Thrones**). Although his part is minor, he looks badass.

I saw one reviewer call the armor Arthur's side wears "something that comes out of Star Trek" and another call the bad guy's armor "leather ala Road Warrior," and both are fairly accurate descriptions. Nothing really look period, it all looks a lot more sci-fi then medie More

***"You have to not care whether you live or die"***

There were three medieval/British Isle films released in 1995 -- "Braveheart," "Rob Roy" and "First Knight." Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" is certainly the most epic of the three at three hours, but I found it overrated; which isn't to say I don' More

OK. First things first; this deviates substantially from any of the other depictions of Arthurian legend, so if you're looking for anything akin to the films (or books) you've come across before, then I'd stop now. If you're looking for a light and fluffy costume romance, then you might salvage some More

**I really like this movie, but it's a terrible movie.**

This film is, for me, particularly nostalgic because I really enjoyed watching it in my childhood and youth. It was one of those films that marked my imagination about the Middle Ages, and how it could have been. Obviously, the way I see it More
