The reason I saw "Knightriders" is that it stars Ed Harris...and I'd watch nearly anything with him in it. However, if it weren't for that, I never would have watched this type of film. You might want to keep this in mind when you read my review.
The film looks rough and you can tell by some of the acting. While Harris is good, several folks are simply caricatures (the father and the guy played by Stephen King) and show poor writing and direction. A few other became good actors, such as Patricia Tallman, but don't look especially good here.
As for the story, it's about a group of oddballs who travel the country putting on jousting matches on motorcycles. My problem with all this is that I simply didn't care about what I was seeing. Overall, a rough but only mildly interesting independent film. Some apparently love it...I'm one who didn't.
