For those who do not care a lot for Camelot, this could be your movie. It struggles to turn a loose version of Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court into a suitable vehicle for comic Martin Lawrence, whose inconsistent performance doesn't help the cause a bit. Lawrence plays Jamal Walker, an underachieving employee at on-the-skids theme park Medieval World. After falling into a moat, he is magically zapped back to a 14th-century England that he initially fails to comprehend because "they're all such good actors". Director Gil Junger seems unable to control Lawrence's tedious cheeky-chappy persona and leaves little room for laughs, action or other characters. Consequently, most audiences will be turned off by this derivative romp.

Martin Lawrence plays Jamal, an employee in Medieval World amusement park. After nearly drowning in the moat, he awakens to find himself in 14th century England.
