CRITICS OF "First Knight"

TheMovieReport.com

The out-of-place [Richard] Gere doesn't do justice to the fine performance of [Julia] Ormond.

August 07, 2004

Resource

Variety

Aside 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.

February 13, 2001

Apollo Guide

While 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.

April 23, 2008

Film.com

...lots of action and chivalrous pomp, but no magic.

January 01, 2000

EmanuelLevy.Com

Director 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.

Groucho Reviews

Goes 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.

April 21, 2008

eFilmCritic.com

Bland and over-romanticized treatment of the Arthurian legend. Gere ridiculously miscast as Lancelot. Watch Boorman's EXCALIBUR instead.

March 21, 2003

MovieCrypt.com

No Merlin, no magic, no way.

April 06, 2003

Washington Post

Pillaged of such mainstays as Merlin and Morgan le Fay-as well as magic, majesty and depth-'Camelot' has become 'Camelite.'

January 01, 2000

Resource

Rolling Stone

Whenever Zucker stops piling on battle scenes as if he were directing Braveheart, his film casts a romantic spell.

May 12, 2001

Los Angeles Times

The problem for him[Gere], and the film, comes when the non-physical acting begins.

February 13, 2001

Resource

Washington Post

There's swordplay to the hilt, but the story itself never quite gets in Gere.
