Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 10, 2001

A single fish-out-of-water joke told over and over again.

Mark Twain managed to pen A Connecticut Yankee all by his lonesome, but three highly-paid Hollywood writers were needed to put together this lazy retread.

Martin Lawrence [stars] as a theme park worker who falls into a scummy moat and surfaces in the Middle Ages -- perhaps in search of people who would find his humor fresh and original. No such luck.

Full Review | Dec 3, 2001

Tedious and predictable.

| Nov 29, 2001

Paint-by-numbers clich-fest.

Black Knight isn't awful, strictly speaking, just tepid and predictable.

Full Review | Nov 26, 2001

A time-travel comedy that doesn't go anywhere we haven't been before.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 25, 2001

There's precious little to like about the witless and decidedly tedious Black Knight.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Nov 25, 2001

This is paint-by-numbers filmmaking.

Intermittently amusing though sloppy around the edges, Black Knight makes a serviceable vehicle for Martin Lawrence's clowning.

Slight but highly enjoyable.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 21, 2001

Were it not for Lawrence's presence, you get the feeling the flimsily constructed comedy would simply collapse and blow away.

| Nov 21, 2001

It's a bad sign when a movie begins with an extended close-up sequence of its star plucking a nostril hair.

Full Review | Nov 21, 2001

This is Lawrence's show, his chance to demonstrate his comic nimbleness and appeal. He runs with it.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 21, 2001

Represents yet another blown opportunity to raise Martin Lawrence's game to a higher level.

Full Review | Nov 21, 2001

The filmmakers ... seem to have been inspired mainly by contempt for the audience: everything about their work feels lazy and slapdash.
