Great for guts and gore but nothing else

Rating: 6/10 (5 January 2011)

Centurion lack in story and for this suffers a lot. Anything that stars Michael Fassbender is worth watching and as always, he does no wrong. The battle scenes are devilishly beautiful. Maybe to much guts and bones for a 15 but for thankfully, this film takes no prisoners.
One Third of the film consists of these battles which is fantastic as the story rails out in a slow tedious fashion. Rescue leader, let him die, escape the high mountains. Nothing to it . The last twenty minutes becomes almost too Hollywood esquire.
One encounter which you will look forward too is the fight betwenn Fassbender and Kurylenko in whom, does a great job as the mute. The battle scenes are fantastic but unfortunately, doesn't make up for the non-existent story
