Knightriders is the story of a group of people who hold a contest that involves motorcycling and jousting. The King wants to keep the contest small and let it grow on its own. The black knight wants to take the contest big time. He hooks up with an agent and he and a group of dudes split off to form their own motorcycle jousting group.
This is a good movie. It's an interesting concept that's pulled off really well by a capable director. I'll probably buy this on DVD eventually. The only real qualm I have with it is the 2:25 minute run time. This movie is epic at that length. This is the Boogie Nights of motorcycle knights movies.

8/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
