Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Very Cool!!!

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Who needs historical accuracies when you have a great piece of better historical fiction? The Crusades weren't fun times and Orlando Bloom is the perfect sad face to express that. Really a great movie when you have time carved out for it.

The cinematography and production design are the best thing about this film. It brings you into that world and compells you to stay there. Eva Greene and Jeremy Irons stands out among the actors giving more than those characters offer. But there is a whole lot that seems to be missing something to be making it really good. The director's cut is supposed to be the best version but the mise-en-scene is so off at times and the music felt mudplaced. Bloom was kind if disappointing yet overall it was ok.

This movie is one of the many movies that try to discredit religions by showing characters who don't understand religions and are full of doubts as a consequence. The movie doesn't attempt to explore their doubts but just leave them be. Furthermore it portrays Christians as religious fanatics and Muslims as much more peaceful than what is historically accurate. In fact, this movie strays so far from real history that it disappoints me how Hollywood is full of people who have jumped on the left-wing bandwagon. They twist the truth in order to appeal to generation snowflake. These people and mainstream media are a major part of the reasons why so many young people have been brainwashed. The characters are way too predictable and are not at all complex. The plot and lines are so cheesy that I felt embarrassed when I was watching it. Nevertheless, this movie has good graphics. Eva green is really attractive.

well, i extremely rare to write a review..but then after watching this director cut worth 3 hour++ i feel like to make some comment. firstly yeah iam a Muslim whose some of you guys think bad. but the truth is the bad Muslim is not religion itself but the person. as in this film story. what got my attention is how they view Islam in this movie. rarely Hollywood movie Islam guy as nice and moderate guys. mostly i watch that Muslim leader is a blood hunger killing men woman and child. so what catch my attention is how they accept the salahuddin fact on how he act of kindness on their enemy. iam not saying that all Muslim leader before is good. when a kingdom rise there will be a downfall. same as Islam kingdom, there have been a proof where hundred year of ruling a kingdom make slowly they Islam kingdom fall to become bride and power hunger. this also happen to Christian, this what the movie show, is not only Islam but Christian also the same. hundred years of ruling then someday will come the fall. where everyone hunger for power and fight among them self resulting to loss to enemy.This is what i exactly in my view, most Hollywood movie will only make Islam as bad person and view Christian as good. but in reality both has a downfall. but bear in mind that downfall not come from religion itself but from a man that hunger for power and use religion as excuse. what make me satisfied about salahuddin is how they show he give mercy to surrender survivor, and how he respect other religion. you can see that he pick up the cross that have fallen, and he avoid from stepping the cross sign. this is exactly how our religion (Islam) is promoting. respect other religion. that what exactly what salahuddin do. and when he answer jurusalem worth nothing, everything. it means thousand word. for both jews, Christian, Muslim jurusalem is a holy place. but the truth is it has nothing. it only in the middle of sand that why its nothing. but its everything worth fighting for that is because is the holy land.its maybe has nothing but its have everything. that why the crusader at last scene travel to jurusalem to claim. because its everything for jews, Christian and Muslim.lastly come to my 1st point, some Christian will telling that this movie is awful. they only show the bad side of Christian, but sometimes you gotta admit it, there also the time dark age where that time people abuse religion to their suit. but look at the bright side while maybe ballian not a loyal to Christian but he do believe in god earlier and want to go to jurusalem to repent for his crime and her wife. while he gave up his life then come the light. and the last conversation that he get is why he get all that experience if no god to help him. and then this view that religion is not at fault but the person does, why the bishop and priest view as not good person. the same can be view from the salahuddin adviser which he really want a war to get jurusalem while salahuddin still want peace negotiation. you can see that salahuddin adviser really happy when they war with Christian. while salahuddin himself respect the jurusalem king earlier. this is the message that this movie to deliver, the religion is not at fault for a person actand sorry for my bad English
