I saw this movie four times in the theaters. I don't know how I survived sitting through it. I only went because my two friends are obsessed with Orlando Bloom. One of the worst actors today. This movie just turned into another hollywood action cliche. The battle scenes, while at some points thrilling, mainly just fall flat. This movie is just a waste of time. I recommend maybe one viewing of it. Then go out and rent "Gladiator" and you'll see which one is better.
