Very well executed

Purely Joyful Movie!

Not even bad in a good way

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

A lot of the reviews on here said they only got two episodes through, that's not enough to form an opinion, come on. And also a lot mentioned that there was too much singing, but sorry, its a MUSICAL COMEDY. And the singing is honestly what makes it so great. Its something different finally. And its a parody so its cheesy beyond all hell but that's the point, the costumes, the dialouge, the crappy and hilarious jokes, hell they break the fourth wall for gosh sake. They were fearless while making this and they let their vision happen, they didn't care about the ratings. Refer to the season two premiere episode, **SPOILER** the opening song is literally about how they were cancelled somehow so they are just running with it until they do inevitably do get cancelled. Hilarious and fresh. It is such a great show and I have watched it so many times since I found it when they put it on Netflix. Even if you don't like musicals, this one is worth a shot, it is not a true musical it is a PARODY (cannot stress that enough). It makes fun of itself all the way though the show, it always says exactly what you were thinking. And I am waiting for a third season, hopefully we get it. This show deserves it so much more than most shows out there. Like once you get to the 10th season of something, its time to let go. Not after just 18 episodes. But its so good, watch it.

Living in NYC, I've seen my fair share of Broadway musicals. They become variations on the same beat and musical style and the stories often are trifles. So it was with a hesitant eye that I watched the pilot of Galavant,thinking it would be typical Disney fare. Not only was I pleasantly surprised at its originality and cleverness, but it was very enjoyable to watch. The music and lyrics are smart and, while somewhat predictable, still strong, and the actors are all doing strong work. I've read some of the negative reviews and those comments are par for the course, but given all the reality TV shows, cop shows and junk drama on network television, I found Galavant to be refreshing. I'm sure everyone knew it was going to be an uphill battle to find an audience for this offbeat genre, and it certainly was not safe to green light this, and so all the more reason to be appreciative of those who forged ahead against great odds. Congratulations to all.

*** Some Spoilers - Warning!***Galavant was brought to my attention by a good friend, whose analytic nature usually dissects films to a level I've rarely seen in the media. So, when he said I had to see this, I trusted him. I'm so glad I did!But what troubles me, in all these reviews is that all of them have missed the parodies, not only of musicals/films in general, but specific ones, too, that are hard to miss, if you've seen the ones they parody:Grease (King Richard and Roberta)Les Miserables (Sid)Cats (Gareth)Rent (Princess Jubilie)West Side Story (Giants/Dwarves fight)Young Frankenstein, etc. (death scene)And more...What I loved most about them is the ludicrous volume of high end talent that fill out every corner of this show. And you can tell each actor had wicked fun with their characters, to my utter delight. They played off each other so beautifully, it was absolutely delicious.Yes, yes, Timothy Omundson seriously outdid himself at King Richard. Without question, a favorite character. And Mallory Jensen was devilishly delightful as Madelena. Karen David as Isabella is a wonderful counter to Madelena. All of the cast has a shockingly large skill at singing the most ridiculous songs, while maintaining character, and the banter is irresistible. Pure magic.Mocking modern inventions (like zippers), and reminding us all that our point of view (from a modern age) makes our understanding of history quite skewed, but also makes all the medieval understanding of the world the backdrop for most of the jokes that make us laugh the loudest. This understated, but clear broadside to our modern way of life and our place in the world, makes this series not only brilliant, but an instant classic I shall treasure forever.Thank you, thank you, thank you! Rare it is when you gather such enormous talent and pull off such a brilliant, and better yet, ORIGINAL show. This one is spot on!

It's a flying circus meeting Plebs. Hilarious show which HAS to be renewed - because of the hurricane, not a whiff, of fresh air it brings to TV scene.Basically, toying with a viewer in some medieval scenery is not new - think of a 'Knight's Tale' meeting Monty Python. Galavant touches the familiar strings, constantly breaking the fourth wall, and doing it so lightly and positively it always leaves you smiling after a short, but intense episode.It'd be a shame if this one's canned after just to hilariously fun seasons.
