Stupid and immature

Rating: 2/10 (3 April 2007)

This overrated film is supposed to be epic, but is not. The imagery is in no way breathtaking or even original. The actors are all underachieving, but Butler is worst of them all, shouting every line and overacting as if he was in a school-play.
The story is non-existent and there is absolutely no tension. I have a hard time believing that anyone over the age of 16 actually can enjoy this. It is nothing new, just a blatant rip-off of some Gladiator-parts mixed with a little Sin City. And not in a good way.
The action is not exciting at all. We are being spoon-fed cliché after cliché and all the action is in slow motion, which gets old really, really fast. And since there is no plot or tension, it is very boring. Plus, there is not as much action as a mindless action-flick like this should have.
No, skip this one. Or watch it and laugh about how bad it is, and get blown away by the fact that some people say this is a masterpiece... No one that knows ANYTHING about film would say that.
I came in with low expectations but was still disappointed.
