DJ F @RT57784607 1d I am intrigued. No superstar leads, never heard of it but it unfolds like the most seasoned storytelling saga should. So in that respect I should say I am pleasantly surprised. This kind of action thriller doesn't come as often as these kind of movies used to, which is why I enjoyed it even more. Escapism, betrayal, great believable fight scenes, solid acting, comic like in a graphic novel kind of way, and modern, slick and clean visuals. Very well put together. Should have been a theatrical release. A movie about original people with this kind of finesse and style? Here for it!! See more Eric W @RT26659445 Apr 21 Great story, awesome scenes. See more 검의길 귀 @RT11258378 Apr 19 The new movie 'RISE OF THE CONQUEROR' is a world conquest war film that vividly portrays the history of the world's strongest military hegemony of the Timurid Empire, which inherited the Great Mongol Empire, which was the empire with the strongest army in world history. The achievements of world conquest and world domination accomplished by Genghis Khan, the strongest conqueror in world history, were precisely the great process of establishing the world military hegemony of the Great Mongol Empire's army, the world's strongest cavalry empire. Later, the great world conqueror General Amir Timur Khan, who claimed to be the official descendant of Genghis Khan, the strongest conqueror in world history, launched an overwhelming history of world conquest wars to rebuild the glory of the world military hegemony once enjoyed by the strongest army in world history.

I loved learning about historical figures lesser known in the western world with a Gladiator-esque story line and the stunts and production design to match. The acting was great and I appreciated the way complicated characters and context was introduced. The horses and battle scenes were epic and the film made me want to learn more about Timur and his legacy.

It was incredible to watch the character develop throughout the movie. giving up his will to fight to getting back to his old self and fighting for not just his future but for those around him. Also the setting, utterly beautiful, they filmed it in real small villages, not another set! It made the movie feel more realistic, the chess pieces, the details in the doors, and especially the costumes! And I love how everything really tied in, the lighting paired so well with the sound tracks and the filming! Anyway, please watch this movie, it was sooooo good!! And it deserves to be watched by as many people as possible!!!! See more Noelle H @RT40821843 Apr 15 Brilliant historical fiction, finally a movie with a new story. Much needed!
