Presumption: Although I like historical movies, I thought the box office failure indicated a rather long, boring movie. I was not particularly thrilled with Orlando as the lead. I thought the DVD extras would make it worth purchasing.Result: The movie was much better than I thought it would be, and deserves 4 stars on its own. Although long, it was not boring. Casting was very good, although some of the finest actors might have been a bit under utilized. The DVD extras are first rate. Additionally, the Pilgrim's Journey has an amazing amount of information for anyone interested in this time period.
