Richard the Lionheart

There is nothing which can describe how bad this film is. If you are a student of film making you should watch this film and learn from it how not to make a film, which could hurt you in the future. If you make a film like this you might never have an opportunity to make a film again.

Plot: What is it? I carefully watched it and could not figure it out. Since I read the other reviews I still was not sure what the plot is. So, nonexistent plot. I do not get to see many of those.

Acting was that bad that future actors should carefully examine these non acting and try to do it differently. They might be successful actors if the do not act as these people. What is wrong with them? Is that some psychiatric ward trying to do something with its patients? This is a must see! Not!

I have never been a part of a review site my entire life (yelp,rotten tomatoes, etc...) because I am lazy guy that does not want to spend the 5 minutes to sign up. I am the guy who doesn't contribute but checks the sites and values the other viewers who are nice enough to spend the time. I thank you all.

*** HOWEVER, this is a special situation***

I felt that if I did not spend the time to log in and say how ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE this movie was that I would be doing humanity an INJUSTICE.

Giving this movie a 1 is 5 to many stars, it deserves a negative 4 stars. No human should have to sit through such filth and waste their lives. My dog seemed to be entertained at the slow moving guards that have no freaking idea how to swing a sword.

There is no sense to the plot, the acting is GARBAGE. The worst part was the ending. You spend 2 hours waiting for a Braveheart type battle only to have been shafted.

It likes going to dinner with an unattractive person because you are sure that they will put out. You waste 2 hours of your life with that person and expect great things only to get a kiss on the cheek at the end of the night and a cold shower.

The only thing worse than the movie was the guy who gave this movie 4 stars. His review made less sense to me than the movie.

***MY RATING NEGATIVE 4 STARS*** ***THE WORST MOVIE OF MY LIFE*** GARBAGE.

If the Italian review has any validity, Malcolm McDowell got most of the money spent on this thing. And if he read the script beforehand, he could ONLY be doing it for the money....

The Introductory Sequence made absolutely no sense & everything went downhill from there. I think monkeys wrote the script & a couple humans put their name on it. The last scene has some basis in History but nothing that came before it does.

Loved the Druidess, although I think she had about 90 seconds of total screen time.

I have a serious soft spot for bad movies, but this was just painful.

DVD Box looked great, plot seemed OK, so I watched it.

Wish I hadn't, and also wish I had gone with my first instinct 20 Min's in and switched it off.

Totally cant understand this film, are you supposed to suddenly start liking the hero (Richard) after his appalling behaviour 30 Min's before? Basically a pathetic storyline, that doesn't really add up, effects and Atmosphere seem to be added just cos they wanted to, despite being awful effects.

Only redeeming quality was the fight scene's made me laugh, it was like watching kids in a playground pretending to fight, slow awkward movements, embarrassing.....

My advice would be to NEVER WATCH THIS MOVIE

I was physically ill after watching this for only 20 minutes. The one ironic thing about this production was the armor and costumes were very accurate, with none of the corners cut in most medieval films, so someone clearly cared about the historical accuracy of the armor. But it seems they failed to hire a writer who could put together a sentence that made sense, let alone a plot. Don't waste your time on this trash!
