Dark Knight

Personally, the series isn't as bad as some others make it out to be. It isn't a blockbuster by any means, but, it does hold some fun watching. The acting isn't poor at all, yet it isn't suppose to be fantastic. It is no different then Xena or some others. It is kind of like a D&D adventure series too. Set in medieval times, it is a fantasy based series during the time of king Richard when he was imprisoned and his brother John had the throne. There is magic in it as well as strange creatures. Dragons are shown on the DVD covers, but there are only a few episodes so they didn't get to any that had dragons in them. Just have an open mind and you may like it. I wish there were more then the few episodes. I have them all.

Extremely predictable and cheesy and campy perfect for any true fan of this kinda stuff. The fight scenes are so bad it is hard not to cringe the acting is so sophomoric that you feel sorry for the director and the story is so overplayed and overdone that simply reading the description let's you know episode by episode what will happen next.

Great action sequences! Captivating and enchanting story lines. A breath of fresh air as English and New Zealand actors bring to life a colourful world of sword and sorcery, monsters and mayhem.

Highly recommended.

A series well worth watching if you are into sword and and sorcery shows. There are fun characters and lots of great CGI effects. A show that the family can watch, but of course not to be taken too seriously. Great scenery and because of the British production style it has a feel different and in my view better than the usual American effort of this genre.

Like most of the other users I rented this under the title "The Darkest Knight" It's pretty obvious after the first minute that this is a TV show edited to look like a movie. (You'll notice that there are two "sequals" in the video store. (I've only rented the first two "movies") Why they just didn't market it as a show I don't know, probably because to my knowledge it has never aired in my area.

Word to the wise: despite the cover picture there are NO DRAGONS.

The story is straitforward though Ivanhoe is more like Robin Hood. It's bad, but bad enough to be funny. I enjoyed it and thought it was funny. (A scene in the first episode is almost word for word from a famous Star Wars scene)

So, if you are of the opinion that bad things are funny this is a good one for you.
