About this movie

The world of the Middle Ages was populated with heroes whose feats and derring-do have captivated multitudes through the centuries. Legends with names like Lancelot, Galahad, Gawain and...Jamal Walker!? Martin Lawrence plays Jamal Walker. Jamal toils unhappily at Medieval World, a theme park that looks like it has not been renovated, or had customers for that matter, since the Dark Ages. After falling into the park's fetid moat, Jamal crawls out into 14th-century England, a world of knights in shining armor and damsels in distress, not to mention questionable hygiene and really lousy plumbing. Now a stranger in a very strange land, Jamal falls in with a dissolute knight, a beautiful woman with some very modern ideas, and even a rebellion against the evil king. The Middle Ages will never be the same as Jamal uses 21st-century street smarts and moves to help his new friends!

A little journey from the modern to the times of execution.. Alike martins reality in his dream he fullfills a change of rules & regulations. His experience was a change of mind & heart. He is the black knight.

At the very end he was in Rome, gladiator pit, would have been fun to see Martin travel through history of different times. I wonder would he have met Spartacus or someone great. Who knows =) but anyway bom bom bom bom bombombombombom XD

Good movie. Hilarious from beginning to end. Too bad they didn't make a sequel. The ending left open a possibility for a sequel. Overall, fun movie.
