great movie

Rating: 9/10 (21 June 2005)

Even most was historically inaccurate, I am a sucker when it comes to epic battles and/or comedy movies. I would say that there were some non credible parts to the movie; however, I seem to enjoy it greatly.
*Spoiler* The non-credible parts to the movie I would say the ability for Eban, ( antonio banderas ) to easily learn and comprehend the language flawlessly of his viking companions from just hearing them talk. Another part of the movie comes on the epic battle when a few warriors fight off a whole army of wendels and when the wendels have a clear victory they run off into the wilderness.
With those errors set aside I believe this would have been a great movie if it was longer and able to develop the story at a pace.
