perfect film entertainment like the, oder adventure films from my yoth

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2001)

I did not read the book, This is a report on the film. We must find a new superlative to describe the look of this movie, There were many scenes that reminded me of some adventure films I loved as a lad, FOUR FEATHERS,THIEF OF BAGHDAD, the Indiana jones & star wars trilogys. This is a 3 hr film with hardly a second of wasted time. The acting as well as the Music, costumes, makeup etc are all Oscar worthy. my rating is a very high **** (the highest I go)
