Bringing civilization to Western Europe.

Rating: 8/10 (1 September 1999)

Loved the movie, saw it twice. Great action with enough plot to keep it interesting. Found it very interesting that a major studio would acknowledge that Mohammed's Arabia was the center of literature, culture and civilization in the middle ages while Western Europeans were living in mud huts or caves. Also loved the sequence showing him learning their language. Lots of levels on which to enjoy this film. 8/10
