A young woman, the daughter of a Knight of the Round Table,
with the help of a blind hermit, goes on a quest to find Excalibur.
SEX/NUDITY 0 - None.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A sword and spear fight takes place between several men
and leaves a man mortally wounded. A rooster is knocked in the head with a barrel top.
There's a really scary looking griffin who tries to steal Excalibur and is then fired upon
with spears and arrows and attacked by a falcon. A woman is taken hostage by a group of
men. A woman is chased into a scary forest (with arms grabbing out of the ground and other
ugly creatures running around) by some monsters. Some monsters shoot blades and a man
beats them with a large stick. Fire-breathing dragons chase some people, over a pit of
bubbling liquid. A monster flattens some men into a wall. Several men are turned into
strange creatures. A woman is threatened with a blade and a man is threatened with a
sword. Several fights with groups of men being knocked around. The griffin is torched. A
man disintegrates and we hear him scream. A scene shows animals in a panic during a fire.
A man is hit by a horse and ends up going blind.
PROFANITY 1 - Several non-profane insults. [profanity glossary]

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
