Bloated and pompous, great cast, awful script

Rating: 3/10 (6 September 2003)

An out of control epic that careens from one unbelievable situation to another. Too long by at least half an hour, some good editing would have helped, but overall it still would have been boring. A true misfire of a movie. Big cast, expensive sets, but disjointed and rambling. This movie was actually worse than I expected, and I expected a fairly bad movie. I would not recommend this movie to anyone except those who want a good example of vanity movie making.
