This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's amazingly done. It combines the middle ages with present-day music. It really brightens up the movie. The movie starts with William Thatcher, a poor squire, who has always dreamed of being a knight. When he gets the chance to disguise himself as a knight, he takes it. He decides to maintain his false identity for as long as he can. With the help of his friends Wat, Roland, and Geoffrey Chaucer he is able to pull it off. He creates a new name for himself, Sir Ulrich of Liechtenstein, he wins tournaments and awards. To prove himself truly noble he must beat an arrogant knight Count Adhemar in a series of jousts. We also learn that William's father gave him up in order for William to find a better life. He and his father are able to reunite in the movie. It is quite moving, it makes me cry everytime I see it. The cast is excellent in this movie, the cast includes: Heath Ledger, Paul Bettany, Alan Tudyk, Mark Addy, and Rufus Sewell. This movie is also loosely based on Geoffry Chaucer's book Canterbury Tales. That's where one of the character names comes from. I recommend this movie to anyone.Read full review
This movie with Heath Ledger is so good that I had to buy it. I watched it on television for the first time and HAD to have it. I can watch it over and over. And I am well into my 60's so I am not a teenager and have a crushed Heath Ledger (with the tragic ending of his life). The movie is about honor. pride and self respect. He was superb in the movie. The character, the costumes, the stage scenery were all very well done.
Exactly what I wanted thank you so much 😀😀

The movie came pretty quick. We had a problem with it working in one of our DVD players but it worked in a different one that we had.
