Absolutely mind-blowing

Rating: 8/10 (29 March 2008)

If there is anything I like about animated movies like this is the prospect of watching unseemly things being done with a perfection. I mean, where else would you get to see Angelina Jolie in a full-frontal shot with the camera strategically pausing at the .....ahem..... points of interest....... and don't go telling me that the movie witch ain't Angelina.....'cause there can't be two women in the world with such delicious lips......lol.
Anyway, the movie seriously takes up the benchmarks for 3D-animated movies, 'cause now that we've seen this, we're going to ask for CGI that is better than this movie and then some more. The plot is tightly woven and historically correct as far as I have researched on the backgrounds of this historical character. The CG has slipped off its realistic approach at some points but that is understandable with the budget constraints, but still, there are some points where you wish the animation was a bit more realistic.
