Knightfall is an attempt to replicate Michael Hirst's enduringly successful blend of historical drama and spectacle, but Don Handfield and Richard Rayner have produced something that feels in almost every way second-hand.

I feel like Knightfall has found a sweet spot where the right combination of bloody action, sex, mysterious alliances and two-timing plans can easily draw in fans who are less likely to be interested in shows that offer such things.

This knowledge presented "Knightfall" a significant opportunity to enthrall the audience in addition to empowering it with knowledge. A demanding quest, for certain, and one it fails to fulfill.

Knightfall creates an engaging story centered around the Knights Templar and their search for the Holy Grail. With gorgeous costumes and wonderfully designed sets, Knightfall does a great job of bringing 14th century Paris to life.
December 06, 2017
A handsomely produced series that has the flavor of a British tea-time show, only infused with a lot more violence and gore, as well as soapy elements that feel tired practically from the get-go.

The cast is good, the fight scenes prolific, the overall lifting not heavy. Grailies among you could do worse.

Still, Knightfall has a certain charm to it, particularly in some of the side-plots involving the other Templars. The show takes a little while to get going after a frenzied and muddle start, but it builds its plot twists well.

The series takes a fascinating historical moment and uses it as an excuse to channel a half-dozen fictionalized histories and renders something specific relatively generic.

While Knightfall makes for an adequate companion to History's Vikings, it's still strange to see a network once devoted to fact peddle these quasi-factual dramas. It's like finding out your favorite history teacher believes the world is flat.

The scripts are so wrapped up in explaining how everybody's connected to everybody else that they become exhausting.
