okay, this must be remade

Rating: 4/10 (2 December 2014)

I'm sorry, can't give this a high mark, as I've seen some people liked it, others didn't.
First of all, maybe I'm the only one that actually went reading the book by Valerio Massimo Manfredi before seeing this. That book is various times better than this movie, also really different (VMM is a historian, we must say that) : except some concepts of the movie, some of the events, it has nothing in common. Now, no problem on the absence of gore, that's okay, but with the realism of fights. halph of what we've seen was too pirates of the Caribbean-like fighting with no realism. I must blame the direction here. If they were following the book, they could have done a true blockbuster of this. Still, ben kingsley managed to save this some how.
