Sword & Sorcery But With Drama

++++-

 
Reviewer: twobells

Unbelievable but true, forget the usual Sword & Sorcery this is all that plus it has drama underwritten by quality actors.
No, not your hollywood generic breed but method actors at their best.
The film's effects were amazing considering the budget, the fights unbelievable in their viciousness and locations were awesome.
For kids raised on generic american cinema with massive budgets the cgi might seem underwhelming but it makes up for that in spades with historical background, atmosphere and realism.
Me, I can't wait for a sequel.

Really wished I hadn't wasted my money on this one at the cinema and waited to hire it from Blockbuster!

The depressing weather throughout the film was almost prozac inducing(God help the poor extras who endured the filming - hope they were well paid) - defo don't watch this if the February weather's getting you down!

Storyline was completely predictable and the characters totally shallow. Even a good British cast couldn't lift the dismal script. If you've seen the trailer on TV then you've seen the best bits of the film.

I also found it laughable that Christianity was being hailed as tbe moral code during this volatile time in history when in fact it was exactly tbe opposite!

This is a boring movie. only six people finished movie at the end. I did not leave because I had fallen in sleep in the first 30 mins.
To get rid of the final boss,only taking about 2 mins including the 110 seconds monster wandering and 10 seconds shooting time. One shut ,all finished !? what a movie!

That is a great movie for insominia surfurer.
