Knightriders
Review date: 2008-03-22 Rating: 6 out of 10
I love Biker films but found this a bit lame. Jousting contests on bikes I could take, even the armour but living by the knightly code and talking like divs is to over-the-top for me. The bike are good, with an unusual choice of six cylinder bikes but the plot leaves a lot to be desired.
If you want something that really speaks to the heart and to the spirit in man, with one of the single greatest actors of all time (Ed Harris, of "The Abyss" fame), without any fancy trimmings at all in the special effects department, go for this.
I loved it.
Like Harris's other classic, The Abyss, there is a powerful, positive message, about what is most important in life, shown clearly in this film. If you think that chivalry and knights in shining armour are dead and gone, but wish that they weren't, you'll love this.
