So.. I might just not appreciate things the way I am supposed to, but did anyone else think this movie blew? I dont just mean cheesy action sequences (which there were) I am also talking about horriable editing and a plot that seemed like not everything was explained.

Some scenes looked like they were cut in half, plot lines seemed to be jumpy, and the action (especially in the ladder baddle) seemed a bit to magical for the movie as the guys seemed to float from ladder to ladder....


Oh well.. at least the ticket only cost 5.50

I agree it sucked.

Did you see the way he scaled the wall of the castle towards the end? It didn't even look like he was climbing the rope, just someone pulling him up. Also, it felt like everyone was saying their lines before the last person finished their's. Lighting was also way to dark.

Yup, people got up and left the movie. I was bored and started counting the AC vents in the theater. Man, the people who did the trailer should have edited the movie. I also had a made-for-tv quality that I don't enjoy paying for. I hate it when I get duped by marketing.

Heheh.. I was counting lights. I really was suprised on how bad this thing was. I normally like every piece of crap that comes my way as long as it has good action and pretty effects but this one just didnt work. Hopefully The One will be better...

The ads made this look horrible. I can't stand cherography like that, with the guy doing ninja crap. Take the part where he is on ceiling rolling along the roof. Man thats some fruity horse's dung. It works in the matrix but you're able to understand why because physics don't apply as normal in that movie. Any other movie should not make use of wires because it just makes it look retarded.

Yes I thought it sucked as well. What was the deal. I was at least hoping the fight scences would be something interesting but all of them were so close up and so dark I couldn't tell who was who and if they were even fighting. And I swear I saw a rope in some of those scences.

Do yourself a favor and buy 7 dollars worth of 3 Muskateers bars instead :)

The acting sucked! Mira savari looked like she was laughing throughout the entire movie, man that's bad acting. Good thing i didn't pay for this junk. I should've gone to see the others again!

i couldn't decide if i liked it or not but the whole movie was boring and stupid, the action scenes to me were the only thing that kept it together (i like cheesey action (matrix anyone?)) but i do agree that they were dark, the sound effects were also really exagerated but it did give a nice bang to it :)
