- Return to those days of old when knights were bold and baseball ruled the land. Baseball? It's Camelot meets the sandlot in Disney's A KID IN KING ARTHUR'S COURT, the hilarious update of Mark Twain's timeless "A Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court." To 14-year-old little leaguer Calvin Fuller, life is like one big strikeout when he lets his team down. Then an earthquake s

DVD Review: A Kid not in King Arthur's Court
Summary: 2 Stars
I saw this movie while flipping through tv stations late one night, actually it was early in the morning. It said King Arthur in the title, so me being a fan of Arthurian legend, and having apparently missed this movie from '95. I had some problems with it.
So the "kid" in question is playing baseball. Apparently he is not very good at it (ie: strikes out a lot). After he strikes out to his arch-baseball-rival-pitcher-guy, a big gigantic earthquake came and sucked him into a big whole which apparently is some sort of inside-earth-time-wormhole, or something. They don't really explain that, well it's a kids movie, so I will give them that one for free. Anyways, he gets spat out in the medieaval ages in "Camelot." A few items about King Arthur and his family, Arthur never reached old age, in this movie he appeared as a grandfather figure. And he also didn't have two daughters (he had one son, Mordred) as in this movie.
Well, most of the movie is spent with the people from that era usually the nobility and knights and Arthur's one daughter who is the kid's age, oggling at his backpack (which he lukily brought with him) of futuristic "wonders" and they have a jolly good time. But he wants to get back home. Where's Merlin, oh, he's a willy old face in a well. Yep. So he gets about a days worth of knight training from a non-realistic generous knight and suddenly he's a master fighter and jouster as seen later in the film.
Anyways, the movie ends with him getting back and his new love (Arthur's daughter) and Arthur being in the real world with him (yeah, like Arthur would leave his kingdom for some kid) and he's sent back before the infamous strike out. Blah blah blah.
All in all, kids may be impressed and like this movie. I didn't find it too entertaining. If you want a movie about a "future guy" in the past, a Conneticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court was way better. This didn't do it for me and may not for a lot of other people.
