Martin Lawrence amuses in raunchy comedy.

Martin Lawrence [stars] as a theme park worker who falls into a scummy moat and surfaces in the Middle Ages -- perhaps in search of people who would find his humor fresh and original. No such luck.

Tedious and predictable.

Lawrence relies on his usual act as the hip black guy surrounded by square white men.

Black Knight isn't awful, strictly speaking, just tepid and predictable.
