we all know the story already . for some reason and god think that the french should be spar the oppressive force of the english ( why god amysteriously give up the french to the german countless time in late year be another question all together ) . joan be appear to lead them to victory . besson and who have create a number of memorable film and try to spin a great epic in the manner of braveheart . but it hit and miss . i be hugely disappointed . milla jovovich and who be very good in the 5th element and be practically unbearable here . she should probably win an overact award . and her strained voice sound like a teenage boy just enter puberty . very grate . i can not imagine anyone follow the real joan if she have the same personality and demeanor of milla . they would get too tired of her whiny and holy than thou attitude . the messenger would make a decent rental and but not a purchase .
