A friend of mine gave this to me for Christmas because friends of hers are extras but I thought everything bored me. I don't remember any of it, but that it was about the Revolutionary War. I have nothing else to say. Just skip it.
... View MoreMy old childhood friend and I watched this together, myself for the second time. This is a movie that is rare these days, full of important themes like redemption and love. This is an historical costume piece and easily one of the best ones. I thought the lead couple were great together and interestingly, they married several months later, a happy postscript to the movie. I have 4,000 movies in my collection and this is in the top rank. I found the acting very good. Just for the record, I am a PhD in History, a former military officer, an adjunct Associate Professor and a Christian. Bravo to all who made this movie!
... View MoreSimply outstanding. I cannot believe why this movie got poor ratings. May be they did not cast top rated celebrity. But everybody on this film has just nailed it. Very nice story, good adventure, action, romance, suspense more over acting what is missing just named it.Seriously it doesn't deserve this poor rating. Viewer must be misguided if they see the rating. I think IMDb authority should do something about it. Anyway each and everybody in this movie get my huge applause. In addition, a massage for those viewers who is looking for adventure, fantasy, romance, action etc. This movie will give you a package of everything. I must say again this movie deserve at least 8 out of 10.
... View MoreOne of the worst story telling i've ever stumbled upon.When i saw this movie i had to go through an our of reviving my IMDb account, just to say this. *I'm actual laughing* I will cast no shadow over the actors, the picture nor the music. It's good quality throughout most perspective. But the story telling of this movie *now i'm laughing again* is probably ... one of the worst.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Looking at the first 20 minutes tells you that nothing makes sense. (Yes, this spoilers only treats the first 20 minutes or so for the movie, so you can read this and still see the movie without fear of anything important being revealed. If you still want to see it.) There is no thought of what is possible in reality, and that would be okay if it's that kind of movie. But it isn't. In the opening scene the lead character will shoot a flint lock silent sniper rifle with darts that make people fall a sleep instantly. He has a companion that has a wooden thingie the reads distance and wind speed. They fire a crossbow with 600 feet (200m) rope attached (i guess 300 pound (140kg) of weight). They are gliding down on the rope into a ship that is moving. He steels the secret document and jumps in the water with the secret parchment documents which would destroy them. He then meets up with his boss and tell him he wants to change his life and the boss immediately places a car-bomb that is attached in an magnetically fashion under his carriage. (Yes, a 1700's car bomb) They tell the driver and the guy that accompany the hero that the bomb has a 10 second fuse. When the fuse is lit (magically?) the guy in the carriage tries to shoot the hero super killer person. (the guys know there's a bomb so i guess they was willing to die (not to try jumping off)... or just did not like thinking a lot) A person from nowhere rides up to the carriage and warns the hero of the bomb and dies in the action. (where did he come from and why?) The hero is saved by the bell and assumes the identity of the dead man that warned him of the bomb. Now it shows that this man was a priest and the hero takes his identity. (witch seems to be really easy, if the person has no friends or someone who will miss him) The hero swear that he will avenge him and now you think his going to kill people .... but no. That was just for the effect. He now just wants to be a priest and a good person. And so on, and so on. No reality rolls from the film crew and no one asked why and how anything is happening. Thing are done just for the effect with no questions asked. I could go on forever about this movie. About all meaningless odd thing that plays out and all the unjustified small thing that swarms the movie, but i think you have already guessed the movie. Its just about making money on a theme.Me my self love good movies and .... the really really bad crappy ones. (i now, uncommon combo) So i will continue watch this, just to tell friends and have a lot of really good laughs. I will never understand how this movie can have any rating over 1.2 on IMDb. Thats a real mystery that i will never solve. And if i was an serious actor in this movie, i would never tell anyone that i was a part of it. Nor would i do it if i had anything to do with this film.As i said in the beginning. I will not cast any shadow over the actors, the crew, or anyone else ... except the director and the other people that had anything to do with the storytelling.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - You will like this movie if you are a boy and don't have any standards.It's a must see for you who love a really good/wretched B-movies. (Especially if you and you're friends have a big hangover and it's Sunday.) Don't see it if you want to see a mediocre or good movie.If you like lousy story telling movies and you want to have a lot of seriously good laughs with you're friend it's at must see as well.Don't see if you want to see more than moving frames.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thanks Google for the help with the translation. :)
