How detailed a description can you give of a movie... while still having it apply to more than one movie?
...Hm.....

A time travel parable which features a protagonist who accidentally time travels. He at one point has a rather awkward and wholly inappropriate romantic entanglement. Conversely through time travel is able to make her life better. At some point in the film he meets that particular girls brother. Some comments are made on the brother's jail status.

and hey it's by Nicholas Meyer - the guy responsible for the 'good' star trek movies (the early even numbered ones) let's all see it then reconvene.

Nah too obvious if you say that he will spring some fiendish trap on you like The Space Man And King Arthur or something.

I'm not naming any actors, that would be too easy.

*Super Mega Ultra Obscurity Challenge*

The movie I'm thinking of is falsely advertised (skillfully), and leads people who see it's cover to think that it's a medieval adventure epic, when in reality, it is a cop drama. (It's certainly not a good one, either.) This movie currently has 3.2 out of 10 stars on IMDB, and was only released on VHS in 1992 as far as I know. The movie I'm talking about had a sequel, in 1995. Also, there seems to have been an unrelated martial arts film from Hong Kong with the same name.

Feel free to use google, and there may be a prize... :)

Screen grooming.  A most underrated activity. - hairy_hen

Vigil ? Nope not a cop drama.

Monty Python's Holy Grail? Nope too many releases, too highly regarded, not remotely obscure.

I need to give this one more thought.

No cops in Simon King Of Witches...hmm most perplexing.

A young man rebels against the government and joins a small group of terrorists under the influence of a religious extremist. His mentor martyrs himself to enhance the young man's resolve against the establishment. He later joins a suicide mission and successfully destroys a major government installation in the name of holy war, indoctrinating himself while killing thousands of people.
