I had pretty high hopes for this movie based on the great visuals in the trailer and the quality of talent Involved. I figured with the PG-13 rating it would be more watered down and there could only be so much of that "epic" feel to it. It was even less so though. There were really only two major battles. The opener was decent and the ending was great but most of the stuff between - and there was A LOT of time inbetween - was lots of dialogue and deep thought close ups. The pacing was very off and it made this movie drag and feel even longer than it actually was.
I wouldn't really recommend people rushing to check this out. I was hoping for something maybe like Troy in terms of an "epic" movie and got something much more like Kingdom Of Heaven.
