A new telling of an old story. I thoroughly enjoyed it

Connery is good but Gere doesn’t live up to Lancelot and the plot is pretty thin and superficial for the length.

I remember loving this movie as a kid. It was really fun, and I used to watch it a lot. In recent years though, the clichés became too much.

Twenty six years old already. I like mostly all medieval movies and programs. For me a no brainer, and just something to watch. Not bad.

Not the greatest versian of a King Arthur story. Great cast, but story is lacking . . .

Very poor example 4 what should have been a far superior film all round if it had had a better writer & director, considering the cast!

Forget Twilight. This is the best love triangle. Team Lancelot! Beautiful cinematography, gorgeous dialogue, gritty version of a fairytale.
