This is one instance where I definitely have to say screw the critics, A knight’s tale is a great movie. I have to say the big reason this movie is getting bashed by the critics is because of its uniqueness, they just can’t handle it. It’s a mix of generation X satire, classic adventure, and Mel Brooks comedy, also a little touch of that stuff that they make chick movies out of.
The movie is about a handsome peasant dude “Orlek Van Licktinstien”, much like myself, who poses as a knight to win jousting competitions. His squires are Wat, a crazy guy who is funny as hell, and Roland who just sort of hangs out and the poet Geoffrey Chaucer, who is a medieval version of Michael Buffer. They travel from town to town and country to country winning jousting competitions. Orlek/William falls in love with this babe, however this other knight who is a real dick head also digs her. That is all I am going to tell you about the plot of this movie you will have to go and see it for your self. Don’t be a stooge and spend the 7 bucks to see it and prove the ass wipe critics wrong.
The reason I think this movie is so good is because a lot of us poor schmucks will identify with it. Some things have not changed since medieval times. Such as the poor man is held down by the man, chicks are still hot, and it is still a fun to eat food, drink ale, and Dance with babes, and fight over them too.
Thanks for reading Gary C.
