Sam Adams The Dissolve [E]ven while it's apparently not what its creators intended, Knights Of Badassdom is perfectly enjoyable in a low-key way, with sharp performances [...] and a nigh-endless string of cameos Rated: 3.0/5 Feb 20, 2014 Full Review Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times "Knights of Badassdom" actually delivers everything the 2011 Danny McBride-James Franco comedy "Your Highness" purported to be but fell short on. Jan 23, 2014 Full Review Todd Gilchrist TheWrap A one-note joke and a whiff of a story that fails to offer a single reason - literal or metaphorical - why dressing up as a fictional character is enjoyable or rewarding. Jan 21, 2014 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher Supernatural slasher haunts a live-action role-playing game. The cast is clearly having fun, but none of it rubs off on us; Peter Dinklage and Steve Zahn are completely squandered. Oct 3, 2020 Full Review Frank Ochieng SF Crowsnest Knights Of Badassdom is an uneven creepy concoction but still somewhat excels at mixing its cheesy lampooning of LARP-oriented escapism with the cliched grossness of tired horror flicks. It is feisty and joyously absurd Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 11, 2018 Full Review Annalee Newitz io9.com What's great about this movie is the way it remains so gentle and light, despite tackling a story that could get pretty dark.

Mark B Really stupid fun watch. It is not a "good" movie but at 85 minutes it is just a fun ride. Steve , Peter Dinklage and Summer Glau what is not to like. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/04/24 Full Review Krystle B This is one of those movies that is so bad that it's good. It stars a bunch of great actors and had some really memorable scenes/lines. It truly is a cult classic. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/24 Full Review Enzo O HALF MAN, it was almost as epic as epic movie Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/04/23 Full Review Nigel P Funny take on LARP Fun show to sit back and relax. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/23 Full Review Sean S Kind of lame but not terrible... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/03/23 Full Review Dave A Several chuckles, for sure. Some satisfying gore for some bad guys, yes. But a lame plot, and a predictable denouement. I don't lament the time spent watching it, but then I have the flu and no energy for anything remotely more rewarding. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/10/22 Full Review Read all reviews
