Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

I absolutely loved this movie! It was a light highly entertaining film, one that you can sit down and watch at any time. James Purefoy was absolutely amazing. I have always been a big fan of his, but he really shines in this film. He is the epitome of what a leading man should be. The entire cast was splendid, especially the parts of the skateboarding priest! The only character that was slightly disappointing was Patrick Swayze's character. I had not seen Patrick in a film for a long time and I was slightly disappointed with him in this. He didn't seem to really become the character he was playing. He seemed awkward throughout the film. Like the character did not really suit him. But aside from that I loved the film. It was so nice to see a movie where the whole family can sit down and watch it. There was no cussing, no sex, no gore. It was an action packed, romantic, wholesome family movie. On a little side note and responding to a review I had read earlier, this movie is in fact based on a children's book. It is titled Saint George and the Dragon and is by Margaret Hodges. I used to love this book when I was little and having seen it come to life on the big screen made the movie all the more special. I would recommend it to everyone who enjoys a funny sci-fi thriller with a happy ending.

This film looks as though it had major production problems with cast (disapearing) and hence a revised plot line?? After what I imagine is a bit of a bodge job on the script the cast has persevered with a lot of humour and gusto to present a story which although it has many flaws also has a charm that makes up for this to the credit of Purefoy, Perabo and Duncan who throw themselves into making the best of it I suspect. If you like a comedy along the lines of A Knights Tale combined with a bit of Robin Hood Prince of Thieves then this is pretty much what you are getting, a good old romp with some hammy over the top theatricals thrown in.

This is the one movie that represents all that is bad in the movie business. The actors are pathetic and the script is awful. The special effects, if there are any, are so badly done that it would have been better to do it with cartoons instead. Besides that it's great! I think the creators of the movie meant it to have humor, but the only time i was laughing was when I saw Patrick S. with long hair and the colorful costumes that every one had. The scenes at the end were good but they were not a part of the movie. In the end you will ask yourself "why did I waste my time and money with that crap when I could have watched the plants growing or the clouds moving". I don't think that I am some critic or anything but this is a truly lame movie! DO NOT WATCH! DANGER OF STUPIDITY OVERLOAD!
