Goin to watch today at 7.30 at midvalley! Fan of the series. I remembered the game back then... Hope they have little teasers from the old game.

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.
