Audience Member The direction is terrible making the film boring and slow, so it's a pile of crap after all. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member This thought-prvoking look at the religious struggles plaguing the Middle East transcend the historical setting depicted in the film. Well-played with fantastic cinematography. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Low budget very poetic film of events taking place in the holy land during the crusades. Here we have a story far from the center of main events, we follow a knight and a muslim stumbeling forward in the desert, and later on a muslim erimite woman in an oasis. There is a lot of religious debate going on. The fact that both christianity och islam inevitably leads to trouble, pain, violence and death is repeatedly proven to us in a almost nagging way. The movie is close to prove some kind of point, eventhough it takes a hell of time to get there, when it just gets mad. Pity, because you don't have to have $100 000 000 000 to make these kind of films really, it's totally ok to write a story in the outskirts of main events and make good usage of a few actors. But you need a script, you really need a script and more interesting dialogue than this. I do also have problems with dialogue that's one-sided; Knight says something that deserves an answer. Muslim is quiet. Muslim ask a question, knight is quiet. Muslim woman says something profound, men are quiet and looks up in air.. and so on... Over all seems the storytelling about whats going on i Accra and Jersualem at the time be fairly in accordance with the facts, but still a pretty slow, boring and at times weird movie Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member so far so dull, and bloody, most of the budget must have gone on bright red stage blood. John Griffiths lent me this this is the second most boring film he lent me!! Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This was one of the most open dialogues behind the struggles in and around the middle east. I found the historical perspective to be very germane to today's troubles. It's not a big budget film, so keep expectations in the realm of historical drama. Each perspective is skillfully developed, even a child could understand the complexities addressed in this film. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Good movie, lovely images of Palestine, solid story line, although I always thought that Saladin had all the Templar's captured at Hattin killed and spared the soldiers who weren't sworn to God... "Saladin ordered that they should be beheaded, choosing to have them dead rather than in prison.'' - Imad ed-Din, Saladin's Secretary. But one can't be too picky. Good movie.
