It's almost a pill the first time around, because it's quite different (God forbid with today's trend toward excessive commercialism, canned plots, and remakes). Gets better every time you watch it after that, though. Could have done without the overly corny... Full review

OK, knock out any scene involving Heath Ledger, and its an A+. He does a fine job, but the love story in it is terrible. Best line in the whole movie, "It's called a lance. HELLOOOOO?!!!"... Full review

This is a great movie. It's funny, kinda campy, but a great story nontheless. After the Heath Ledger's appearances in the dismal "Brokeback Mountian" and "The Patriot", this movie makes up for those!... Full review

"A Knight's Tale" was everything I look for in a movie--action, wit, great cast, romance, story-book charm. It was impossible not to fall in love with Thatcher and his adorable side-kicks, especially Chaucer. Good cleverly out-wits bad and you leave with... Full review

Not as bad as, say Wizards of the Lost Kingdom, but the soundtrack is laughable and the action is complete fiction with little regard to historical accuracy. All in all, offensive to the historian in me.... Full review

The worst sin movie goers can commit is parting with hard-earned cash to witness this barrage of biblical baloney.
The very beautiful Shannyn Sossamon (who collaborated with Ledger and Helgeland in A Knights Tale) makes the most of her undeveloped role as the troubled artist from a mental asylum: she is the girl who loves sunflowers and believes them to be Gods brilliant mistake.

I bought it anyway ($15 at the time, $10 now) and absolutely loved this movie!....Filmed entirely in the Czech Republic, A Knight's Tale is a wonderful medieval movie spanning the life of William Thatcher.....I won't like it due to the modern music.....Heath Ledger is absolutely perfect in his role as William.... ...

Ultimately, the soundtrack of A Knight's Tale worked tremendously well.
Most parts of the movie seemed well executed, but other than the thrilling jousting scenes, none of them excelled.
but it fails to make the movie stronger
