...lots of action and chivalrous pomp, but no magic.
Apollo Guide

While director Jerry Zucker seems to have been intent on dragging the film to the mushy middle, it's still more entertaining than most comparable Middle Ages-set movies.

Bland and over-romanticized treatment of the Arthurian legend. Gere ridiculously miscast as Lancelot. Watch Boorman's EXCALIBUR instead.
August 16, 2005
Director Zucker is unsuccessful in trying to put a fresh angle on the familiar story, and he is not much helped by his romantic leads, Richard Gere and Julia Ormond.
Groucho Reviews

Goes for a pass as a shallow but occasionally rousing swordfighting flick with a handful of thoughtful scenes...has something those other pictures don't have: Sean Connery as King Arthur.
January 01, 2000
Pillaged of such mainstays as Merlin and Morgan le Fay-as well as magic, majesty and depth-'Camelot' has become 'Camelite.'
Variety
February 13, 2001
Aside from casting Richard Gere as Lancelot, First Knight marches out as an agreeably intelligent, mature and well-mounted telling of the legendary King Arthur story.
August 07, 2004
The out-of-place [Richard] Gere doesn't do justice to the fine performance of [Julia] Ormond.
February 13, 2001
The problem for him[Gere], and the film, comes when the non-physical acting begins.

No Merlin, no magic, no way.

There's swordplay to the hilt, but the story itself never quite gets in Gere.
Rolling Stone

Whenever Zucker stops piling on battle scenes as if he were directing Braveheart, his film casts a romantic spell.
