I'm a little curious about this just because of the topic and time period. But it's PG-13 . . . so I'm thinking it's just a lame attempt to try and tell the story. I'll wait for the DVD . . . if that.

I was rather interested in The Last Legion but it ended up being a letdown. it uses quite a bit of CG at time none of which looked very good, the acting is mostly pretty poor especially the kid who was terrible. the "action" scenes were also poorly executed.

After looking at the above info i can't say i'm very surprised since i didn't know the director did Dragonheart: A New Beginning, that too was a shitty film.

I saw this one. I thought it was very good.
I guess it's just me,but I don't look for flaws in a movie, I just sit right back and enjoy it.
