I went to see it for 7 bucks I might add...
It was a decent movie till after the previews... UM! First off they started playing we will rock you, and I almost didnt mind till I saw these 15th century people jamming to it. The story was ok... I actually didnt mind the story one bit, it was the fact they couldnt afford John Williams that botered me... WHO THE F*CK edited the music! THe last song was AC DC WTF! Well thats a rap, unless you want a wierd soundtrack, dont go see this one!

they were probably trying to go for that DiCaprio/Danes Romeo & Juliet or Moulin Rouge feel.... you know... story that takes place in another time but in the present..
or I don't know what I'm talking about... I'm running on 2 hours of sleep.. =P |

I thought so too
But not a chance... All locations and dress is pre industrial revolution, hell they even talk like it, but the music seems wierd. Had a lot of potential lost it with the sound.

Uhm, I believe you completely missed the point of the movie.
It is SUPPOSED to have that soundtrack. That is the joke. That is why the tag line is "He Will Rock You" It is not a MOVIE about knights, it is a MUSIC VIDEO about them. Most reviewers understood this when they saw the movie and rated accordingly. It is similar to watching The Mod Squad movie (I think I would rather claw my eyes out with a fork) and wondering why they are not "mod" Anyway, I just think you were a bit harsh. |

FTP
I really despise this film and it will not earn a place on my ftp... The jousting was decent... but short lived

i didnt think the jousting was that good. Sure the first few impacts were ok, but after that it got really repetitive and absurd, you see jousts, where the "hero" is hitting them, but the other knights arn't even trying, they look more like targets.
