After a long line of epics....

Rating: Null/10 (1 August 2004)

Since I was blown away by the battle sequences in ROTK at the flicks, I haven't seen new films the same way since. Albeit your epic or shallow unfunny chick flick, they have all seemed 'flat'. Troy has been the greatest epic since followed by King Arthur and Last Samurai, and even though King Arthur boasts the most realistic scenes in an age and has a bold 'uniqueness' about it, it doesn't come close to the third LOTR film. I hope that at least one of the new Alexander films will increase expectation, but my bet is on 'Kingdom of heaven' coming out next year directed by Ridley Scott who did such an excellent job with Gladiator.
For now ROTK rules the roost.
