Never came near to my expectations

Rating: 4/10 (23 March 2007)

First thing I have to say is: "Go get the old movie from 1962. Is is much better." I have waited to see this movie from the moment it was announced. I loved the old movie and I thought that with the modern technologies the new version would be even better. Once again the people creating the trailers have outdone themselves and I have fallen for their cheap tricks. If you are a fan of epic movies and a history fan, watch this movie only if you really have nothing else to do. The movie has nearly zero historic value, the storyline is very shallow and the dialogues are badly written. This could have been a great movie, but maybe having the movie based on Frank Miller's novel was not such a good idea.
