It simply drags.

Rating: 5/10 (19 November 2008)

It's hard to believe that this movie is ranked in the top 200 much less #35. It dragged, and dragged, and dragged, and dragged, and dragged... 30 minutes was spent them crossing the desert with absolutely nothing spectacular going on with the exception of the typical yelling of the one character who doesn't think they can cross the desert with the hero calming saying they can.
And of course one has to know that there is the typical, "My culture is bad and so I'm going to start dressing up and acting like the culture I'm in because they are so much more righteous then mine is. Basically it was a very disappointing movie.
Oh yes, did I mention it really dragged?
