Excellent, a Must See

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

I had high hopes for this film, I thought it was going to be the film that Kingdom of Heaven wasn't.Unfortunately I was very wrong.This without a doubt ranks highly in my all time worst films.It really is truly awful - please do not believe anything to the contrary.I don't believe they had a plot, just an idea which they then set about filming (badly).The story, which focuses on the a relationship between a Christian Knight & a Muslim is full of racial & religious stereotyping - the only way they could make it worse would be if they introduced a stereotypical evil Jewish merchant, oh wait that is exactly what they did!!!! The only reason I can suggest you watching this is so you can log in to IMDb and click that my comment was indeed very useful, because this film is awful.Be warned.

I noticed some really bad reviews of this movie so decided to comment. Firstly the movie isn't a story of the Knights Templer or the crusades, it is about life, the decisions we make, how we can spend our lives chasing the unimportant and miss the real life staring us in the face. Secondly if you look at the really bad comments,you will see that they were written by people who seem to think the know all truths. One of the reviewers wanted something that was on par with the Da Vinchi code!!!! I have no beliefs in any Gods but I would stand with Christians denouncing that book/film, because a 12 year old could have produced much better (no insult meant to 12yr olds). So if you have a bit of a brain and are open minded enough and realise that we are always learning, well this film is of a reasonable enough standard to spend some time on.

The characters from this movie are far a way from any culture (Christianity, Islam,...) A muslin woman living alone in the desert...with two man...some time she rise the voice and both man calm down.... Do you really know how was the condition of woman in that age ..in Islam ? Someone say: "I highly recommend this movie to all students of medieval history, and those interested in comparative religious studies." D. Chaltry, Florida.Ha Ha Ha...Mr. Mir Bahmanyar and Kathryn Kuhlen.....please...read at least one book before to write a movie.

i got an IMDb account just to comment this movie, because i was angry. i was angry on being deceived by some previous comments saying it's a bad movie and i'm puzzled by the movie's rate. it is a really good movie, and just because it's less about fighting and more about feeling and thinking doesn't mean it's not worth watching. on the contrary, it makes you think a little on what's inside everyone of us (men): the instinct to kill. religion has always been a good reason for killing, just as "patriotism" today. well acted (the less words are talked, the more is said), beautifully filmed, it focuses more on the inner struggle of all the characters. just one thing i disliked: when the Muslim and the Christian finally get along, guess who's betraying them...yeah, you guessed right, the Jew. apart form this, it is a well thought movie about trying to get along with "the enemy"....and failing to do so. no happy end, fortunately. on the contrary, the end is surprising and just gorgeous.
