This is a bad bad bad movie. The script really sux. The acting is sub par even from Harvey Keitel.The movie tries to be funny with this green knight who is a blatant rip-off of the knight guarding the bridge in the Holy Grail. I kept expecting him to get all his limbs cut off, but all he does is go take a pee.The story could have made for a fair movie, but the acting stunk so bad you wouldn't be able to hold your breath long enough. Especially bad acting from the princess. Peeu Another running gag in the movie is that every time the princess is kidnapped or disappears the king tells the whole village to dye their cloths black, but when she's found they are all ordered to dye their cloths bright colours. This happens two or three times and I guess the producers thought it was funny, but it was so poorly executed that I didn't even smile at it.This is definitely a good movie to skip if you see it. Run the opposite direction as fast as you can.
I just watched star knight and the story is not bad, It's just the audio is badly out of sync. For a low budget movie this one is not bad i've seen worse ones. If this movie is ever re-released i hope they fix the audio problems. I like to watch low budget sci-fi movies mostly from the 80's. The acting in star knight is not bad. Plus i hope they make a sequel to star knight. And this movie is original as far as i know. I've been wanting to see this movie for a long time. On the web i've seen some pretty lousy reviews of this movie but i don't completely agree with them. To me i just like this movie. plan 9 from outer space is worser then star knight.
I saw this movie about 15 years ago, maybe more. Since the moment I saw it, I have been steady in saying that this is, in fact, the worst movie I have ever seen. And, I have seen a lot of crappy movies in my day, so this is saying a lot. I cannot believe anyone else has even seen this film; if you can even call it that.My father thought it was going to be a great film and boy was he ever wrong. Thank you Dad, for showing me what a truly bad movie is. I think that might be the reason this movie was made; to show everyone what a bad movie is.If you feel a strong desire to see this movie, I am not sure why you feel that way; therapy might be needed. Unless, of course, you want something to compare movies to in order to judge how bad they are.
I was reading what the guy above said about it and no i have no clue how Harvey got suckered into doing this film. it is raw comedy for him. Typical princess meets the man of her dreams and can't have him film with Harvey as the knight who loves her and her money and is gonna kill the one she loves to impress the dad and princess, marry her, and thus be rich. Only problem is, he can't...and the idiocy of his fighting with a man who cannot be beaten...he is in an IRON suit which a bunch of swords cannot penetrate, is a riot! This must have been done during the BAD years when he had to buy baby formula and stuff. But see it just for the HUMOR and likeness to those crazy 60's sci-fi flicks like "It Came From Outer Space".
