Summary: The worst film ever made, and I mean ever!!!!
Review: (...)I have never written a review here, but I hated this movie so much I had no choice but to warn people of this hidious excuse for wasted film. Eric Roberts has two minuted of screen time in a flim that must have payed at most a month's rent for this faded b-movie soon to be where are they now actor. It was like a bad Xena mixed with a highschool film project. Who ever payed for this to be made on DVD new how to con people, the cover has swordfights, horses and battle scenes, none of which appear in this movie. Man it was the worst ever, please never watch this for the love of mercy...

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Well, my 10-year-old loved it....
Review: ...but he found the story confusing. With some editing to make the movie a little simpler and perhaps a narrator to pull things together, they should repackage this one and pitch it to Disney. My son loved the swordplay and the goofy characters and couldn't stop laughing at them.

The only fun I got out of it was watching Ron Perlman, but then, I could listen to him read the Manhattan phone directory and never be bored.

Summary: One of the worst movies ever made!
Review: Actually it is THE worst movie ever made. but that exclamation point was because I'm excited! At last i've found it! the only movie in the universe that is so awefull its actually worth watching! so rent it for the kids and watch it yourself, if you like it you have issues, if you dont itsso hilariously bad you can't really say you wasted your money now can you! Its an offer you can't refuse. honestly its [bad] with lame acting, romance, fighting, screenplay, direction (was there any?), and same sex mouth to mouth kissing. this a real [stinker]. deserves to be put above Battlefield earth (which is much better than people say) as the worst movie ever made.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's not Braveheart - But it's a very good little movie
Review: Alright - it's not Braveheart, but the King's Guard is an intriguing story with swordfighting, romance, good guys and bad guys. Kids can watch it and its family fun. Compared to the vast quantities of crud that's out there - you'll want to see this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Adventure Film for the whole family
Review: I enjoyed this lighthearted family action film with Eric Roberts. He plays a great bad guy and I loved the princess. the kids were very entertained by the film and the sword fighting was great. I recommend it for the whole family.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun, Clean Movie
Review: I honestly cannot understand why some of the other reviewers have given this movie poor reviews. This is such a fun movie. It's a storybook tale charged with sword fighting, clean romance and good humor. I'm glad I was able to order one of these before you ran out of stock.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie
Review: I turned on tv a few weeks back and saw a small,but brilliant movie about kings guards. I was impressed with the production..the sets and designs looked really professional and the acting was above average. I am not sure why this movie was not shown in the theatres, or I don't remember seeing it. But I highly recommend it for family viewing

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FANTATSIC MOVIE
Review: I've always loved movies with teh whole medieval-plot to it, and this one is acceptionally good! I loved the costumes, and they all were fantatsic actors ; the parts where the two men are fighting over the hat, and the other two men are acting for the princess, the lady, and her escort, really brought some humorto the movie, the swordplay was fantastic. To those who're just worried about the costumes, who cares if they were victorian or somehting?! The actors were fantastic, and the costumes were good enough to fit the movie. I especially liked Katie(female soldier) the captain, the princess , and William(the soldier) but, i loved the whole cats & movie, I reccomend this video to anyone who just wants to watch a action/adventure type movie, with some humor in it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: OH how did this get made!
Review: OK we caught this film on the TV a couple weeks ago and it is sooo bad it is hysterical.
I've been doing historical costuming for years and the costumes were just wrong! While some were nice they were all such a hodge podge of different eras as to completely inacurate. It was as if they got all the historical and SCA/Fantasy reinactors they could find who had their own suits and made this movie. And the totaly riduculous dresses on the women that just look like they took a modern long velevet dress and put a VICTORIAN (1800's) hoop skirt on underneath it.
And as if that wasn't bad enough it was soo badly acted by some and not so bad by others so you would get caught up in the good part and then roll on the floor laughing at the bad!
Eric Roberts and Ron Perlman have a few brief scenes but it was soo bad.....
The only reason I give it two stars at all is because they have a bloopers real, a-la Jackie Chan movies, at the end that was just great! That would have made a better film than the film!
