In the Disney Tradition

Rating: 7/10 (24 August 2010)

If you were expecting to see an original story, fantasy film then Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is not for you. On the other hand, if you were looking for a highly visual and fun film then in general, you probably will enjoy this film. Prince of Persia keeps the audience interested with lots of action and fight sequences. In fact, if you took those out you would be left with just about half of the film. This much I can say about the fight sequences, they are well choreographed and incorporate CGI effects very well. The special effects do not overwhelm the excitement of the sword and fist fights. Prince of Persia feels and looks very much like a Disney film with a lot of attention being paid to the aesthetic qualities of the finished product coupled with the requisite Hollywood type ending.
