Entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (27 July 2012)

6.4 is too low for this movie. In my opinion it is easily a solid 7 if not a tad higher.
I had never heard of this movie so I watched it with no expectations on netflix.
If you like the sword and sandals genre you will love this movie.
It is very violent. The action scenes are great and very gruesome. I would imagine though that war is always gruesome and especially so in this time.
It also interesting that Neal Marshall is responsible for this. Just found out about that aspect of it. He also brought us "The Descent" which was another very good movie that surprised me. I see he also made "Dog Soldiers" which I'm going to watch in a bit.
If the review seems thin, well I don't like spoilers, and while I will talk about a movie in general I normally refuse to give away any movie details.
