i be baffle by the number of people who actually like this movie . how anyone can watch this crud be beyond me . aside from the blatant attempt to cash in on the popularity of arthurian legend ( this story have nothing whatsoever to do with king arthur and despite the use of some recognizable name ) and this movie be just plain terrible . there nothing bad than a bad movie that pass for a good one . the campy b movie of the 70 and 80 be bad and everyone involve with them know it . first knight could fall into that category and but it doesn not . it just bad . the look of the film rival some of the best after school special of the time period . when i come across it on tv and i think it be an episode of j. a. g. until i saw sean connery . the script remind me of coffee commercial and the acting aspire to such . what be up with that swing sand bag and sword gauntlet thing . it look like it should have be the thrill climax to revenge of the nerd vii represent nerd in camelot . avoid this stinker like the black plague .
