A Knight in Camelot Audience Reviews

Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Catharina_Sweden The idea of sending Whoopi Goldberg to King Arthur's Court, through some science experiment gone wrong, sounded... silly indeed! Very stupid. But I have to admit that I found this movie surprisingly good! You recognize all the story-book characters that you learn to know and love at an early age: King Arthur, Merlin, Guinevere, Sir Lancelot... The Arthurian world is not too different from what you expect, and it is NOT made silly but treated with respect. And then, of course, funny and likable Whoopie comes in as a stirring and overwhelming contrast to all stuffy Court protocol! :-) Two things I like especially: 1. They show something of the ordinary people's lives as well, as it probably was in this very immature England - and not just an idealized court.2. That they manage to picture the hopeless suppressed passion and longing between Lancelot and Guinevere, in a way that adults watching will understand and thrill to, but still completely pure and innocent for the children - who will not understand the eroticism. There is also an important and very beautiful message in all this, and I have to admit that it tore at my heart-strings and wrung a couple of tears from my eyes... something that has not happened even with allegedly great movies for a very long time! Much recommended for families with children in all ages!
tumeric Whoopie is simply irresistible. Cannot get enough of her and feel happy to be in her company. Also a major treat to get to see Michael York--ahhhhh, that Richard Burton regal voice of his. (What on earth is he up to lately?) Amanda Donohoe always looks ravishing--and plays a convincingly somewhat wicked Guineviere.Much of the movie made me unwilling to suspend my disbelief, sadly. The costumes seem anachronistic--or at least a lot of effort was not expended on making costumes and effects believable. That said, however, somehow, the fun won me over. My little girl enjoyed the movie too (I covered her eyes during the jousting scenes, which really weren't that dreadful by Hollywood standards).Not thrilled with the lame ending. With better writing, pacing, and an upgrade in costumes, this would have been as high as a nine.
LHorseAL7 I personally love this movie.....Whoopi always makes me laugh and this was no exception. I have to give this a 9 out of ten because they didn't make a sequel. Whoopi is truly hysterical in this movie and i love when she is fighting Sacrimore. Anyone who does not see this movie is truly missing out on a fun and truly entertaining movie. My favorite line of the movie was "Lance, Lance he's our man, if he can't poke him no one can. Go Lance, Go Lance, Go Lance, Go Lance." This was right before Lancelot and Sacrimore are about to have a jousting match. Merlin also keeps you thinking that he is a bad guy but in reality he is partially behind this taking Whoopi back in time. Again, This is an awesome movie.
Chazzzzz This is a very entertaining production of Mark Twain's classic time-travel story, tho this time we have Whoopie Goldberg, who works with computers, zapped back into Camelot with her laptop and boom box! Nice cast, including Michael York as Arthur, Paloma Baeza, Amanda Donohoe, and Ian Richardson as Merlin. Good all around, especially for kids because there's several messages to be learned here. The FX could be better, but this is not a big budget film and they are okay. Good costumes, including Whoopie's suit of armor! Solid 8.
