So, did anyone see this last night? Urgh... it was terrible. Why bother going to all the trouble of making it when you make it badly?
It was partly crap because they seemed to shun battle sequences for dialogue.
"Let's attack London!"
"OK!"
*waits for fighting*
*no fighting*
"Wow, that sure was a great battle for London."
"Yes. Yes, it was."
Terrible. The editing and directing was flat out awful in places, and Billy Elliot's dad using the force to pull swords out of the water? Wait, it wasn't the force, it was reversed footage. That old trick! Terrible.
I honestly cared more about Braveheart and The Patriot, and we were the bloody bad guys in those films! Here, you have low budget costumes, cockney speaking Romans, a lot of talk about it being "our land" and, despite being two hours long, a whole lot of NOTHING happening.
Look, the Romans are here. Oh, a guy in Rome is boning his mother, and wants to take over the empire. Oh, wait, they want slaves from the British village. Oop, they've captured some of their women. Oop, they've flogged Boudica and raped her daughters. Oh, one of the daughter's Roman boyfriends has killed himself... rather than save her. Oh, look, now everybody wants a fight. Wait, where's the fighting? Is that it? You've just stolen two hours of my life! You call that an ending?!
And they promised nudity. All I saw was this mopey, annoying teenager banging his mum. Nasty. I'm glad ITV are funded by companies who want to sell us stuff, because if I was paying them to produce rubbish like this, I'd want to lynch them.
And Billy Elliot's dad pulled swords out of the water by magic.... MAGIC!

Saw a film yesterday (24-7) which was pants but it did have that non-Vinnie Jones hard nut from Lock Stock in it who gave Bob Hoskins £150 saying;
"here's an Orang-utan ".
"What's an Orang-utan?"
"It's a serious monkey".
Obviously not your mum though.
It contained nudity.
And the ending was stupid
I read your posts, and if I can't see any comically-named chums then I wander off and try to goad people into a 300+ reply argument.
Underworld really sucked, I'm actually annoyed I wasted 2hrs of my life in that cinema.
Boudecia looked awful, glad I missed that
