Critic Reviews of "First Knight"
Rolling StoneMay 12, 2001Whenever Zucker stops piling on battle scenes as if he were directing Braveheart, his film casts a romantic spell.
VarietyFebruary 13, 2001Aside from casting Richard Gere as Lancelot, First Knight marches out as an agreeably intelligent, mature and well-mounted telling of the legendary King Arthur story.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 13, 2001The problem for him[Gere], and the film, comes when the non-physical acting begins.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000There's swordplay to the hilt, but the story itself never quite gets in Gere.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000Pillaged of such mainstays as Merlin and Morgan le Fay-as well as magic, majesty and depth-'Camelot' has become 'Camelite.'
Film.comJanuary 01, 2000...lots of action and chivalrous pomp, but no magic.
Apollo GuideApril 23, 2008While director Jerry Zucker seems to have been intent on dragging the film to the mushy middle, it's still more entertaining than most comparable Middle Ages-set movies.
Groucho ReviewsApril 21, 2008Goes for a pass as a shallow but occasionally rousing swordfighting flick with a handful of thoughtful scenes...has something those other pictures don't have: Sean Connery as King Arthur.
EmanuelLevy.ComAugust 16, 2005Director Zucker is unsuccessful in trying to put a fresh angle on the familiar story, and he is not much helped by his romantic leads, Richard Gere and Julia Ormond.
TheMovieReport.comAugust 07, 2004The out-of-place [Richard] Gere doesn't do justice to the fine performance of [Julia] Ormond.
MovieCrypt.comApril 06, 2003No Merlin, no magic, no way.
eFilmCritic.comMarch 21, 2003Bland and over-romanticized treatment of the Arthurian legend. Gere ridiculously miscast as Lancelot. Watch Boorman's EXCALIBUR instead.
