Fuck that movie was tacky! I went in having no bloody clue what it was about, and when it started off I thought it'd be serious...

Sure enough I love comedic moments in all sorts of films, I can even find funny moments in The Silence of the Lambs......but this one, I think it overstepped the bounds.


All those head-slicings, the blood & gore, interjection of the tits, and "dhendhen! dhendhen!" those big heavy distorted guitars- man sure enough I love my metal music, but it DOES NOT work for a story set in ancient times! It just cheapens the whole thing!

Good flick

G Butlers (AKA Phantom of the Opera) other stuff is pretty decent - Beowulf, Attila the Hun, Timeline.

He's pretty cool -my mother came out to see him on Leno afew yrs back as I was letting her out at the studio (I almost ran him over) - he was cool and walked my mom up to the entrance then let her be 1st in line for the 'fan club meet and greet' afterwards - I gotta run down more celebs...

What the hell are you talking about? That movie wasn't tacky at all! It was very well done and the filming was very well done. You have a wierd sense of good movies man
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

Definitely go see this in a theatre dude. I saw it in IMAX and it was unbelievable.
