Left me almost breathless

Rating: 3/10 (10 February 2005)

This film left me almost breathless - I nearly died of boredom!! Four hours of absolute guff. Oooooh wow look at the shot of Omar Sharif riding out of the mirage,imagine what kind of lens could make that shot possible zzzzzzzzzzz Who cares? It couldn't have been that hard to spot him - astronauts have reported being able to see his nose from outta space! And people wax lyrical over the fact that David lean shot a sunrise for real - whats so good about that? The battles were terrible, there's no sense of being involved it's so fake. Most of the film consists of camera moving left to right over yet another sand dune - it's like being on a really boring journey and never getting to the destination.If it wasn't for the music everyone would hate this film. No women in the film at all, plenty of camels but no camel toe. If watching a bunch of thesps mincing around the desert like they were in a Turkish mardi gras for four hours is your bag you'll love it. This film stank like a sand camel's gusset.
