A paragraph is too short to explain the intricate details of this epic battle film. Think ancient Rome, a missing legion of soldiers, native warriors, sword fights and bloodshed. Think Braveheart meets Gladiator. You get the picture, right?
Pretty boy Channing Tatum plays the young man intent on avenging his father’s death, and an all grown-up Jamie Bell is his slave who, we soon discover, is linked to the killing of various soldiers. Created without the crutch of fancy effects and 3D, the cinematography is a real treat: moody, evocative and raw. This is one the guys will love.
Rating: 3 outta 5.
