prefer subtitle-less movies. tongue.gif
plus the picture quality is better and the sound is also better than the 35mm counterpart.

hey peeps. im a major fan of the pop game, esp sands of time. ive played it like 3-4 times before and i still find something new bout the game hehe

saw the sneak preview yesterday at tropicana city mall courtesy of mix fm. im glad they didnt go too far towards making it feel like pirates of caribbean style since jerry bruckheimer made this. it has its share of eclectic casts you might find from some other movie, but it does have its own identites.

I completely went it to watch it not expecting it to be anything like the game. surprisingly there are some neat references. the spirit and plot follows more to that of the sands of time game.

I like how Jake got to wear many kinds of costumes. Earlier in the movie he wears something like from Warrior Within what with the brown armor and red cloth. Along the way he sports a head gear, the same like from the new Prince of Persia 2008 game, but with subdued blue and red color. it looked alright

I din think id say this bout his gal pal, princess tamina. tho she's beautiful, easy on the eyes...she's kinda annoying at times. it has to do with her voice.

The movie in the end was a popcorn flick to me. an action movie and nothing more. which is fine by me. I'd hope for it to be epic but the scope was not meant to be. The casting of Jake Gyllenhaal as the prince was like wtf for me at first. But his scruffy looks and locks (hair) resembles very much of the game's hero, warrior within one. so dats cool.

In the end I enjoyed it immensely. Its not often your most favorite game got to be made into a movie aight?

As of yesterday, there's the last three rows left for 2d at 9.30pm.

I think I'll be watching it first before Hairy gets back with his review. No high hopes, no low hopes, just gonna come in and watch with an open heart.

Nice story telling n romantic.
But it lacks some humor like pirate carribean

Though it is based on game, but it never spoil like resident evil. But all acrobatic stun is remained like the game

Reccomend to watch 2hr i guiess

Those who has play the game, might predict the ending but not for those who have no idea about prince of persia

Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time (2010)

You have NO IDEA how hard writing this is for me...

After the near DUD (Clash Of The Titans by Warner), this is is the next hyped to the max big budget production for 2010.

I really REALLY want to luv this.

I'm a big fan of the game (the original Prince of Persia used the same game engine as Karateka (Apple 2C platform), anyone, ANYONE!! smile.gif

I believe the issue is two fold

1) Big Budget = MORE meddling from production company's executive, hence storyline is convoluted (can you say ROJAK)

2) Big Budget = Jake Gyllenhaal could hardly keep himself noticeable with all the big events happening around him....

Mike Newell is a very good director (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005), Donnie Brasco (1997), etc)

This is NOT one of his best work....

I REALLY want to LOVE this movie and end up think it was OKAY only... cry.gif

Well to be fair it's better than most of game-based movies. Oh and to truly enjoy the movie is don't draw comparison with the game and treat it as a separate entity altogether.

Came back from watching Prince of Persia

To say at least - the movie isn't great but it was good enough the entertainment it does provide with some good fair of action, a little humor and plenty of special effects. Although I feel the movie works because seriously it is Disney, there are some moments you might expect too much but came out nothing more than just a movie that targeted at families.

Certain scenes where Prince Dasdan goes through the city reminds me of Assassin's Creed - I mean, even that stance at a tower he jumps down was similar. The hood he hides his face and all... I don't know - maybe I haven't played any updated Prince of Persia but the feel of Creed is there.

For the first time ever - Gemma Arterton can act! Seriously, seeing her in Clash of the Titans was a waste... but in Persia, she looks stunning and she can act! Jake Gyllenhaal on the other hand... sometimes I dunno can he be an action star or not but he somehow can pull it off... somehow.

The movie isn't great so best not have high expectations. It's a good watch - feels like a popcorn movie.
