    The fact that Cary Elwes did Men in Tights and The Princess Bride means that I constantly mix these two movies up in my brain.

      In one, Cary Elwes plays a character who leaves his home but returns to save his true love from a corrupt king who is trying to force her to marry him. Along the way, he fights and then befriends a giant man who is friends with a man who is especially skilled with blades. He ultimately succeeds by cheating death and then placing the evil king in a precarious situation.
