The film in which Tony Curtis says "Yonda lies the castle of my fodda" (or something like it) is an amiable romp which alternates between comic strip dialogue and a surprisingly convincing sense of medieval custom. The training scenes are as sharp as the romantic asides are pallid.
Great stuff. Tony Curtis was perfectly cast as the athletic, strong-willed knight. The script is fun, the locations & costumes are spot on and all the fight scenes have a huge fun factor about them. Boys-own stuff. 8/10
