No clear storyline that I could see and very violent for age rating

Rating: 4/10 (20 July 2013)

This is one of the weirdest films I have ever seen, I cannot see any clear storyline except choices made now can effect others, Tom Hanks, Halle Berry and Jim Broardbent play their parts very well to be honest they were the only reasons I bought the film, I bought it thinking it would be a good weekend film to watch with my Girlfriend and then in the first 20 minutes she asked me to switch the film off due to the graphic violence and the scene in which a man drinks blood from a sword of which he has just slit another mans throat which for a 15 I thought was very Graphic. I watched it on the Monday after she left and then again on the Tuesday to see if I could manage to grasp the storyline but to no avail and am still in the dark on what the film is actually about.
