The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

One of the main reasons I decided to study film.
Full of magic, great performances.
Funny and passionate.
Just the best.

Dark Knight is obviously my favourite Heath Ledger Film, but I'd easily put A Knight's Tale as my second favourite of his. It has a great cast that has tremendous on screen chemistry. It's a medieval adventure comedy that is thoroughly entertaining throughout. I was hooked into watching this film the first time I saw the scene of the crowd sing We Will Rock You at a jousting tournament way before Queen would ever come into existence. Despite this being billed as a Ledger film and being the lead actor; what really makes this film great is his supporting cast and the connection his team are able to display in only a few hours. This will be looked back on as a true classic.

Before reading this review, you should know that I am only slightly biased - this has been my favorite movie since I watched it for the first time, and Heath Ledger is one of my absolute favorite actors.That being said: This movie makes me laugh, it makes me cry, and it is overall a great laid-back action movie. There is some fighting, some emotion, and unfortunately some lines that could have been delivered a bit more sincerely. But it doesn't matter, because Heath Ledger delivers. He is 100% there, all the time, completely in character and brilliant. Like always. The soundtrack is cleverly enough modern, to show how people of that time felt about their music. There aren't a lot of Middle-age movies where you see the main characters dance to David Bowie and Queen! All in all, this movie will always be very special for me, and I hope I'm not mistaken when I say that this will be a future classic. If you haven't seen it, it's worth it. And if you have seen it, it's worth watching again.

I saw this movie as a kid when it came out. Now i re-watched it, and boy does it hold up. The continuity and logic of the film isn't perfect. Neither is the realism highest priority. This movie portrays the action of tournaments, challenge of love and fun of friendship. If this sounds cliché, then you got it. But it's whole- heartedly approach makes it work!With a modernized medieval era, this movie shines in it's wonderful casting. Not only a stellar (if simple) performance by Heath Ledger, Rufus Sewell, Paul Bettany and Alan Tyduk are PERFECT.
