Inspired by "The Canterbury Tales," as well as the early life of William Marshall (later First Earl of Pembroke), this is the story of William, a young squire with a gift for jousting. After his master dies suddenly, the squire hits the road with his cohorts Roland and Wat. On the journey, they stumble across an unknown writer, Chaucer. William, lacking a proper pedigree, convinces Chaucer to forge genealogy documents that will pass him off as a knight. With his newly-minted history in hand, the young man sets out to prove himself a worthy knight at the country's jousting competition, and finds romance along the way.
Leave your thoughts about A Knight's Tale.
| Boston GlobeJay CarrEssentially, it's a screenful of pseudo-medieval popcorn that hits a high enough level of goofy fun to transcend a pretty blatant marketing strategy aimed at the MTV demographic. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura Clifford"A Knight's Tale" is a bold melding of a modern rock score and culture with the medieval jousting tournament circuit of the 14th century. |
| Apollo GuideBrian WebsterA hodgepodge that seems unable to decide whether it wants to be deliciously tongue-in-cheek or hopelessly sentimental. |
| Jeff Huston's Believe MeJeffrey HustonA Knight's Tale is as crass as studio filmmaking gets. |
| Rochester Democrat and ChronicleJack GarnerIf you don't take A Knight's Tale seriously, the frequent slam-bang jousts, the stardom-bound Ledger, the fickle romance, and, yes, the rock and roll offer an entertaining kick-off for the cinema summer of 2001. |

| Movie HabitMarty MapesThe flaws are there, and you can predict the outcome, but somehow it doesn't seem to matter that much in the midst of all the fun. |
| Greg's Previews at Yahoo! MoviesGreg Dean SchmitzWhat a great idea to plunder the history books (and Renaissance airs) and single out a now-defunct sport like jousting. |
| Nitrate OnlineElias SavadaA Knight's Tale won't slay the Mummy, but it's a noble seller of popcorn. Joust on, brave warrior dude! |
