Worth A Watch!

Rating: 5/10 (19 October 2013)

Review: Although this movie is nearly 3 years old, I quite enjoyed this medieval "On The Run", film which has good performances from all of the cast and a decent storyline. I must admit, I was expecting a more "Sparta" type of movie, but I did stay interested throughout the movie and, for once, I didn't fall asleep. The reason why I didn't see the film when it first came out was because I wasn't a big fan of movies in this genre, but after becoming a big fan of The Game Of Thrones, I thought that I would give this movie a go. There is a lot of running throughout the film and the violence was a bit extreme, but it made the film more intense and enjoyable. If you didn't catch this movie when it first came out then you should give it a watch.
Round-Up: I've gradually became quite a fan of Michael Fassbender, who has w unique style of acting which suite most of films that he has acted in like Prometheus and X-Men: First Class. It did seem like the director was getting as much English actors as possible because Noel Clarke and Riz Ahmed was a weird choice for the movie, but I did like there characters. Dominic West, from the Wire, played a great king and I liked Liam Cunningham who is also in the Game Of Thrones. After watching the making of the movie, it was good to see that the director didn't rely on CGI, which a lot of people do nowadays, and a lot of the action looked pretty real. In all, its worth a watch.
Budget: $12million Worldwide Gross: $7million
I recommend this movie to people who are into there medieval movie based around the Roman Empire days. 5/10
