There, Jamal meets Sir Knolte, a dissolute knight, before he stumbles into the court of the usurper King Leo. Jamal is impressed by what he thinks is the realism of the theme park; only after witnessing a gory beheading does he realize, with horror, where he really is. Jamal encounters the beautiful Victoria who is scheming to return the queen to the throne, and falls afoul of the evil Sir Percival. Joining forces with Sir Knolte and Victoria, Jamal teaches the rebels some helpful football, golfing, and boxing moves, before he dons the armor of the awesome “Black Knight”!
Plot: Martin Lawrence plays Jamal, an employee in Medieval World amusement park. After nearly drowning in the moat, he awakens to find himself in 14th century England.

Dreadful unfunny ‘comedy’
I don’t recall this being released in the UK and I only saw it because I had to sit through it on a very long flight. This film only made it seem even longer.How an actor of Tom Wilkinson’s calibre got mixed up in this dog’s dinner I just don’t know – the money I presume. Terribly predictable plot done many times before doesn’t help. The black star (and I’d never heard of him, presumably a domestic US product) does work hard but just comes across as manic and unfunny.
A turkey I’m afraid, not the biggest around but clucking loudly all the same.
It Ryhmes With The Word ” Knight ”
The plot for BLACK KNIGHT isn’t all that different to a plot to a soft core porn film I once saw that starred Gabrielle Hall . Jamal Walker works in a theme park called Medievel World and by the power of magic finds himself back in not so merry olde EnglandThere’s two things I wish to point out and that is the synopsis that mentions Jamal is knocked unconscious and finds himself in the 14th century is entirely misleading . Secondly any review that claims that this movie is is slightly better than being force fed ones excrement is also misleading
Some people have mentioned that the major failing with this movie is that Martin Lawrence is playing an over blown version of himself . Hmmm and I guess if they cast Morgan Freeman as Jamal this would have been a multiple Oscar winner ? It’s true that if you don’t like Lawrence’s brand of comedy you won’t like this but is there anything good you can say about the movie ? The script has several credited screenwriters which is often the sign of a bad movie especially in comedy since the jokes here never ever work . One such scene is where Jamal gets a a bunch of medieval minstrels to play some funky Motown beats . It’s a ” joke ” you can see coming a mile away and one that lacks credibility because instruments in those days wouldn’t be able to sound like guitars or bass etc
” But Theo you’re missing the point , it’s a comedy ”
No I’m not missing the point at all . For comedy to work there must be a type of internal logic and credibility . For example cast your mind back to BACK TO THE FUTURE where Marty plays rock and roll on his guitar and his audience are shocked because this brand of music is too radical for them and goes beyond their understanding of music . In this movie the King’s court get with the program . Is it credible ? I’ll tell you what it’s not – it’s not amusing
There is another aspect to the screenplay which outlives its usefulness and that is the early stages of the film where Jamal is transported through time and space . Obviously we know that Jamal is really in 14th century England but he doesn’t and that’s where much of the alleged comedy arises from . But Jamal spends something like 20 minutes of the running time naively thinking he’s in another 21st century theme park and the joke is stretched out for a ridiculously long length where it stops being funny , that’s if it was funny in the first place
Badly cast , badly written , badly made . Unless you think the phrase ” Yo dawg ” is the funniest thing you’ve ever heard stick to A KNIGHT’S TALE
