...Knight is a medieval festival for the eye and ear, with rich blue hues and stirring fanfares...
USA Today
Rating: 2.5/5 --
A stock bodice-ripper - albeit one in which all bodices survive intact.

Alternate Ending
...Gere is persuasively ardent and athletic....Connery is every inch the noble king...
Rolling Stone
...[Ormond] is appropriately fetching and feisty....FIRST KNIGHT's large-scale action set pieces are capably done...
Los Angeles Times
I've never seen a film -- whether it was based on a book, a play, or in this case a timeless legend -- treat its source material with such cavalier disregard.
Film.com
Aside from casting Richard Gere as Lancelot, First Knight marches out as an agreeably intelligent, mature and well-mounted telling of the legendary King Arthur story.
Variety
Rating: 2/4 --
The movie is entertaining enough in its own way, and Sean Connery makes a splendid King Arthur, but compared with the earlier films[Rob Roy and Braveheart] this one seems thin and unconvincing.

Product Description:
Lancelot (Richard Gere) is a rogue with no ties, no enemies, and no fear- until he meets Lady Guinevere of Leonesse (Julia Ormond). She has promised to marry King Arthur (Sean Connery), not only because his armies can protect her country, but because she truly loves him. But her chance encounter with Lancelot as she prepared to enter Camelot stirs conflicting and powerful emotions within her. Arthur welcomes both into his city with open heart, little foreseeing how his great capacity for love and trust opens the doors for his own betrayal.
Description by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment:
Together, Sean Connery, Richard Gere, Julia Ormond (Legends of the Fall, Sabrina) and Jerry Zucker,the director of Ghost, bring you a new vision of King Arthur's Camelot. A vision of breathtaking battles, of heart-pounding courage, of the undeniable love that brought an entire kingdom to its knees... and of the undying passion that made it live forever.
