It goes on and on and on, but it's good overall and the final scenes do hit emotionally. 2 years 6 months ago -

Camelot on motorcycles? That's George Romero's unusual Knightriders, on the one hand an excuse for cool motorized jousting and bike stunts, on the other an effective look at the community spirit that exists within a subculture. At almost two and a half hours, I will admit I wanted it to be clearer in spots and less indulgent overall - less exploitative maybe - but what Romero does with this extra time is valuable, giving members of thus Medieval-style rodeo subplots and attention, filling them out so that the plot concerning the side-show coming to a crossroads as its popularity grows means more to the audience. If I was unconvinced throughout, the last 15 minutes has some many great and poignant moments that I had to fall on the side of recommendation in the end. And face it, where else are you gonna get your fix if you're into knights on bikes? 2 years 9 months ago -
