Black Knight (2001) Reviews

• Not a bad film.

  rjames-112006-11-11

  This film isn't fantastic, but it is far from dismal as many people here have made it out to be. Sure, the premise of the movie is silly, but most of these types of comedy movies are. The film is entertaining and Martin Lawrence shows his comedic talent again. If you think this film deserves one or two stars, you probably haven't seen enough movies. For a true 1-star film, go see "Going Overboard" with Adam Sandler---I bet you won't be able to watch it until the end. Black Knight is a pretty good film and I recommend you see it if you get the chance.

• Martin's Crap Streak Continues

  wadew12002-03-10

  I think martin's funny. His TV show was great, Bad Boys was pretty good and Blue Streak is the best movie he's done so far......But since Blue Streak it's been crappy movie after crappy movie. First the corny piece of crap big momma's house, then what's the worst that can happen and now the worst of the three: The Black Knight. Didn't laugh once. Stupid can be funny, but this just wasn't funny. The jokes have all been done. it's embarrassing. Martin, what the hell happened?? Blue Streak 2 can't come soon enough for this guy.

• Very Disappointing

  samslick2001-12-18

  I am a big Martin Lawrence fan. I believe he has a natural instinct for comedy that few others have. However, this movie is absolutely horrible. There were few funny scenes and the story(?) was weak and lame. It is amazing that a star of this stature would accept such a poorly written script. Don't even bother renting the video.

• This movie is a joke

  orangefizz2002-04-03

  This movie has got to be one of the worst for Martin Lawrence. There were laughs here and there, but the plot of the movie was just stupid. And how many times have you seen when there was a person you saw before in the past and then saw a future one. Well anyways. This was a waste of my money. Not to mention that the theatre I went to totally sucked! It just made the movie even worst! But anyways maybe if I watched the movie again I "might" enjoy it.

• Dreadful unfunny 'comedy'

  Britlaw12002-04-04

  I don't recall this being released in the UK and I only saw it because I had to sit through it on a very long flight. This film only made it seem even longer. How an actor of Tom Wilkinson's calibre got mixed up in this dog's dinner I just don't know - the money I presume. Terribly predictable plot done many times before doesn't help. The black star (and I'd never heard of him, presumably a domestic US product) does work hard but just comes across as manic and unfunny. A turkey I'm afraid, not the biggest around but clucking loudly all the same.
