Rubbish

Rating: 3/10 (25 March 2007)

I felt nothing for anyone in this blandly acted nonsense. We got either macho cliché-riven yelling and chest-beating or pseudo-philosophical boring meanderings from dull but pretty actors all trying to meld together in a mind-numbing script and all trying to be Lord of the Rings for the all tough guys out there who don't like hobbits and wimpy things like that, but aren't averse to blatant homo-eroticism. BUT, the visuals were stunning and the action generally very good, the costumes were excellent and set design great. It was as emotionally engaging as a car commercial or slick music video or video game and in fact felt like a hour plus of all three.
