Anyways, for me, it was a good popcorn movie. Just nice. Didn't felt like my money was wasted(yes, better than Iron Man 2). And from start to finish though i know how it would happen, its the narration that made me think otherwise of things.

Cheezy dialogues, but thats what movies are. pacing is nice, parkour sadly Jake can't perform all (especially during the wall run, its obvious someone else did that), jordan seems to love to use Assassins Creed Eagle Eye and execution move, so yeah I had a good time of fun. Wishing more of the parkour (even if its in CGI, i don't mind) to happen.

So, i'd say I can't wait for 2013. A gud 7.5/10, and the best game to movie adaptation so far yet. biggrin.gif

Yes, better than Hitman. (In which I think is among the best)

I sure did. It looked like it was about to follow the ending of the game, which is often cited as one of the best game endings of all time. The movie's ending was cheap.  mad.gif

Lol... In the end... It's only a movie. We can't expect it follow 100% from the game isn't it? Then replay value of the sands of time trilogy games just might as well toss it into the dumpster.

This movie is a Popcorn Family movie.

I loved the little fan service things like the Time Reversal, Zoom in and outs to showcase paths, Costumes (Warrior Within + PoP 2008) When I saw that blue and red cloth, I suspected he will wear in a way Prince 2008 will. Parkour, trap doors... (although there is only 1), sexy ladies in persian clothing (at the time where Dastan was running away from Garsiv). Sadly no spikes and potions...

I'd always loved Jerry Bruckheimer films because rich in cinematography. Soooo much hype was placed into this movie but in the end the ending is just a let down to hardcore movie and game lovers. The movie is great! Until the ending came.

But still, best adaptation so far.

the movie is a bit a disappointment , the game sequence was little . such as dastan talks about where to go to this and that . and the camera will focus to the door and upper castle .. combat was so so . the snake slow mo nat geo thingy is cliche a bit boring . and one of the most important thingy about this movie is that it so rush . its like u like what er what er er .. notice that got one scene kena potong . which i went doh.gif .. a total waste of time and money . pure garbage . as fan of the game this movie sucks .

another flaw of this movie, all the best bits are shown in the trailer.

Every part of "time travel" scenes already shown in trailer =.="

Just watched it yesterday and I have to admit that it is better than what am I expecting.

As for the ending, who didn't see that coming? It is obviously as hell and this is coming from someone who never know anything about "Prince Of Persia" origin or played the game.

Although this series isn't some high quality crafted or well-written movie, but it has its own charm and definitely has good re-watch value, which it is a good thing in my book.

8/10

We watched this today and we really like it. Prince Dastan is nice but Princess Tamina... Ooooo is yummy!

The ending a little disappointing though. The baldy suddenly withdraw his sword and got killed by Tus. Kinda expected more plot there but it has to come to an end.

Recommended!!

The plot or storyline is pretty lousy and lame.

But the good thing is the action scenes, CGI's and characters outlook are pretty true to the game smile.gif

doh.gif Every movie also need to have sequel?

This is a good movie for those that didn't play the game because you will not know the plot or ending. thumbup.gif

Yeah, having a sequel for this is ok. Possibility of Sand monster is good (I hope that sand glass is blown), and Dark Prince (sadistic and creepy, but hoping it wont go Spiderman 3 route) is even better.

Could go for a 2nd round. Anyone felt the Jake close up was pointless to show his machoness? laugh.gif
