Magical fun ride

Rating: 8/10 (21 May 2010)

I'm quite disappointed of the average score this movie's got here so far, because I normally trust IMDb's community a lot when in doubt.
All in all I can recommend this movie for all people who had a good day with lots of sun and fun. Because this movie will contribute to that.
The story is kinda shallow, I have to admit, but the theme of time, the question of "what if", and the power it can contribute to story changes, wasn't wasted. The end of the movie proves that in my opinion. I definitely like such story elements! And anyhow, at least you'll be inspired to think about making it better. So if you're flexible enough to see the better side of this coin, I argue you'll appreciate the story.
Furthermore I've really liked Prince of Persia's music and overall look. It sustained a good deal of atmosphere, magical feel and hotness. As did the actor's accomplishment: The characters. They fit into the surroundings. With all their mimics and costumes and beauty(iful post-processed skins) and make-up. The action scenes, albeit the motivation for their brutality is somewhat unclear to me, were nicely choreographed and conveyed believably the impacts and suspense that were involved. Man, people telling the "graphics" and make-up are cheap and whatnot, they definitely had a rainy day. And it shows they don't have a clue of the time and effort needed to achieve the skills shown off in Prince of Persia. I would surely be happy if they'd think about that matter before complaining away.
Have a nice day.
