boring, boring, boring, without a plot

Rating: 1/10 (27 June 1999)

Maybe the best epic picture was Spartacus, and the best movie about the middle age was El Cid with Charlston Heston. That movie was brilliant and well done with a script plenty of intrigue. This is a long, long, long, long movie with NO SCRIPT ( It is difficult to believe that Queen Elizabeth grandpa was William Wallace, and the non sense romantic ghost story puaj), with the same horrible Mel Gibson performance of Hamlet. The only point in favor is the well done fight scenes. I can't understand how people could think that is the best picture ever made. I still think that El Cid despite the years is a much more better and entertaining movie. To sum up, I think that the main problem of this movie is the inexistence of a script and a plot
