Black Knight

Pros: Gets some decent mileage out of the typical fish-out-of-water template.
Cons:

Some middle-section sags and inept romantic angle.

While Martin Lawrence may never be considered as anything other than a comic performer, rather than as a genuine comic actor, you’ve still got to hand it to the guy: he’s both funny and ingratiating -- a welcome screen presence who manages to ...

Pros: Knights
Cons: Martin Lawrence

OK.. this is not my typical Medieval/Renaissance flick. Not even close. My brother loves this movie though and harangued me until I was forced to watch it... but since I collect all manner of medieval movies, I decided to buy it rather than rent...

Pros: There is one rather funny gag.
Cons: There's no more than one funny gag.

Bashing this movie is like Mike Tyson boxing Haley Joel Osment. Aside from severely devoted Martin Lawrence fans, I'd be hard pressed to find anyone who should see this movie. The plot is as stale and limp as some stale, limp bread. The performances...

Pros: Scattered giggles.
Cons: Martin's more annoying than funny.

Whenever he really wants to be--as in, say, his hosting stint on HBO's Def Comedy Jam; his Fox sitcom; or the film Bad Boys--Martin Lawrence can be hysterically funny. You'd never guess that from watching the remarkably wasteful endeavor...

Pros: Good laughs, fast action, unexpected turns, imaginative plot.
Cons: The lead actress, Marsha Thomason, should have been given more screen time!

Relax! Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't over-analyze everything. Just enjoy the action. It's a funny movie. Enjoy it.

I almost did not go to see it when I saw that the critics did not give this movie enough stars. But I am glad I...

Pros: Funny, well placed jokes, and the end scene.
Cons: Washed out storyline.....

Seeing as no one gave this good movie a decent review I'm here to bring justice to the film. This is one of those movies. One where you have to go see it for yourself and ignore what everyone else says. In this day and age, people have forgotten about...

Pros: Lightweight but lovable goofy comedy full of comic anachronisms which is the real point anyway
Cons: Predictable plot and gags but the laughs are there in any case.

I laughed. I laughed out loud. I didn't fall out of my chair, but I did laugh quite a few times. Isn't that what a comic movie about a young African American who suddenly finds himself in Medieval England is supposed to do? On that score, Black...

Pros: Martin Lawrence
Cons: none

We decided to go see Black Knight when we were seeing the previews on another movie. The previews were hilarious. I like Martin Lawrence. He is a good comedian and a good actor. This movie was really good. I laughed all the way through it!!
...

Pros: Martin Lawrence is one of the few good things in the movie.
Cons: Not as hilarious as you would expect. Kind of slow moving.

I went to see this movie at our cheap movie theatre. I don't think it is currently showing in theatres anymore, at least not in my area. Our cheap theatre gets movies after they have been out awhile. I had seen the previews to "Black Knight" and...

Pros: Delivers a couple of smiles, some of the cinematography is good.
Cons: It's not really funny, alot of jokes fail, the action really sucks.

Martin Lawrence can be quite funny at times. Dough I think he isn't a SUPER comedian. Often he does his best to be funny, but personally, I think he never reaches the level of Eddie Murphy, or Chris Tucker. But then and again Lawrence is alot better than...

Pros: Martin Lawrence is a funny man...
Cons: But not in this movie.

Martin Lawrence is a funny man. Too bad it's really hard to tell lately when his last couple
movies, What's the Worst that Could Happen and Big Momma's House were tired and
cliched. WTWTCH was a terribly unfunny farce of movie that Danny...

Pros: Martin Lawrence again
Cons: The script is poor, which made acting for ML quite a challenge

I really discovered Martin Lawrence in "Blue Streak". That was a great comedy with smooth flow of events and excellent support actors. The script was very well detailed and the story was very captivating.

The authors of "Black Knight"...

Pros: Martin Lawrence
Cons: Can't think of any.

Basically this is a non-sence movie. I sort of enjoyed it, although there are a few boring parts where you want to close your eyes and sleep. Martin Lawrence is a good actor, however, the roll in this movie could have been just a bit better than it...

Pros: It's Martin Lawrence...umm...he's black.
Cons: Most everything else, no set tone for the movie, awful ending

I like Martin Lawrence. I can say that without feeling dirty. Most of his movies are respectable, or at the very least watchable. But this is a new low point.
Martin's character, Jamal, works for a Medieval theme park. Buisiness is bad, and a...

Pros: Martin Lawrence
Cons: No imagination needed...

Jamal Walker, played by Martin Lawrence, is a con man with plans. However, he is stuck in a menial job at a medieval theme park. While cleaning the moat at the park, he finds a gold necklace with pendant. He reaches for it, falls in, then surfaces in...
