This film has many positive points, beside the huge production costs. I liked the fact that this movie is based on some historical poetry written by and ancient writer from early part of the first millennium. It was interesting to see ancient Persian mysticism come to life on the big screen.A good summer popcorn actioner - bry1926
Although this film got generally negative views, the critics have it wrong and the audience has got it right. Everyone I've spoken to thought this was a great summer action movie. Jake Gyllenhal stars as the adopted Prince of Persia, and appears to have prepared for the role by working out for 8 hours a day. Ben Kingsley phones this one in, but the role was definitely not a challenging one. Gemma Arterton is a promising young actress cast as the princess tasked with guarding a magical dagger which holds untold power.
The plot is far-fetched and unnecessarily convoluted, but there are enough twists to keep you guessing, and it is simple enough for children to follow. The action scenes are great. The video game Prince's graceful running and jumping have translated to parkour on the big screen, and the chases through the streets and alleys are awesome.
Zip this one if you just want a light hearted popcorn movie for the family.Good Family Movie - Kelbhup
