Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: After Guinevere gets saved by Lancelot the first time she uses a small crossbow to shoot a guy trying to kiss her. She shoots the crossbow straight up into the guy's stomach, yet when the guy falls dead to the ground, the crossbow bolt is coming horizontal out of the guy's stomach instead of vertical as it should be.

This is probably one of the worst films I have ever seen.
I watched it at the cinema shortly after it was released and would rather have been at the dentist.
The plot is terrible, Connery is badly miscast and, as usual, does nothing to hide his Scottish accent (shame Arthur was Welsh/ English)Richard Gere is absolutely terrible as Lancelot and, the costumes were totally ridiculous - looked more like a panto than an Arthurian film.....
...and so much more.
I hope the cast are suitably embarrassed at having been associated with such inane rubbish.
Absolutely dreadful - it should never have been made.
