I think this is a terrific film.

Every so often there is a hand-to-hand fight scene to cut the boredom -- the best is set atop a precipitously high wooden tower in a village square -- but even these don't set themselves apart from anything we've seen before.

It takes time for the film to bounce back to the heights of its opening scene, but about midway it does.

A bad movie that doesn't even work as entertainment. [Full Review in Spanish]
