Review

With First Knight, one actually gets two movies in one sitting. The first is the familiar though nicely played story of King Arthur (played with gusto by Connery) and his reign at Camelot, fighting evil knights for the sake of queen and country. The second concentrates on the love story between Lancelot and Guinevere -- and it's a preposterous one at that. Gere stars as Lancelot, who travels across the land without a care until it's love-at-first-fight when he spots and rescues Guinevere (Ormond) from the bad guys. Gere's Lancelot is a swaggering Yankee in King Arthur's Court who acts more like Fred Astaire pursuing Ginger Rogers than a man burnt by the embers of love. Set against an impressive evocative backdrop, it's still not quite enough to offset Gere's miscasting and a ludicrous screenplay.
