Movie not up to the mark

Rating: 4/10 (29 September 2012)

I don't know much about history yet the movie had many flaws and maybe the Kingdom of Heaven had a much better appeal as a continuous story. The try was good but maybe help should have been sought from Hollywood or British film makers to set it on the right track in terms of cinematography, animation, sound, dubbing, and choice of actors as the character of Mehmet was not well portrayed and the character lacked the charisma to have audiences to glued to his roles. The actress on the other hand with her gray eyes made her look blind and she was much more mature in her looks making her not very appealing.
There were many instances when I lost track of the film and it was not clear what was going on. No doubt being a historical movies all details should have been taken into consideration and more than once we only saw the same soldiers over and over again. It is still a good try from the Turks to make their own productions but lets face it Gandhi would have not won many Oscars if it was produced locally. On the other hand a good movie like Jinnah would have won many Oscars if facts would have been presented clearly.
