About: Dastan (Jake Gyllenhaal), an orphan in the Persian Empire adopted by the king, and his royal-blooded foster brothers, Tus (Richard Coyle) and Garsiv (Toby Kebbell), and his uncle, Nizam (Ben Kingsley) are planning an attack on the sacred city of Alamut, which is believed to be selling weapons to Persia's enemies. Dastan leads a successful surprise attack on the city and after a fight he gets hold of a dagger. Alamut's princess, Tamina, is captured and agrees to marry Tus in order to achieve peace. read more Review: Prince of Persia was a game that became a movie, the truth is that they changed a lot of things but I really enjoyed the result. I have to say that I have played the game but i'm not a huge fun not of this certain game but in particular. So for me it was a very good movie, I enjoyed it a lot, I felt agony in many scenes, in general it was up to my expectations. I think that Jake Gyllenhaal was a good choice for the role of the prince, both physically and also as an actor. I didn't know Gemma Arterton before (princess Tamina) but I think she did very good. I liked the story a lot, I fell in love with the sacred city of Alamut, they did a great job with the graphics, although in some scenes it felt somehow fake. For me one of the best scenes in the movie is when princess Tamina and Dastan enter the valey of the slaves which is actually a scam so they wont have to pay taxes !! To sum up it's one of those action/fantasy movies, if you are a fun of this kind of films you will really like it but even if you are not you can still enjoy it. I'm really curious what the game's funs have to say about the film..
I watched this movie with my younger cousins but couldn't enjoy it because more than half the time I was busy trying to make the kids behave! Annoying!
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I think I will rent the DVD and watch it again.
@Misha: hahaha..:P
ReplyDeleteI liked this one too. I haven't played the game either, but i heard many things from the boys who were with me. It's a good one watch movie^^
@misha: rent it alone this time!! =D
ReplyDeleteit's a good movie, everyone, at least those who played the game were expecting the movie in a very long time.. it actually went very good so i hope they do the other two games movies too (Prince of Persia 2,3)..
To be honest the only prince of persia I've played is the old 2d platform one... So I have no idea about the new ones... As for the movie, it's a very nice one. I fully enjoyed it...
