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

There is a Digital 2D version? If that's the case, awesome.

dont mean to be the bearer of bad news,but now it's hardly any different than 35mm....cos it HAS SUBTITLES! WTF! vmad.gif

although i dont think anything got censored*looks at the romance scenes* i just hate that they now have subtitles!

wasted cry.gif
when i first saw the subtitles,i swear i thought i was in the wrong hall vmad.gif

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.

Mgsrulz, I KNOW WHERE YOU SIT... tongue.gif

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
*
yeah..
i was hoping for "that" ending,and it turned out that way.

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.

yes, Jordan Mechner has mentioned it many times.
it draws aspects from the game,but it isnt a retelling of it 100%.

he added many more characters, and changed many things about the story-but from what i watched,he kept the

I wish they would have left the name anonymus! Just Prince, like in the game

the movie would never work,seeing as he now has to interact with many more people compared to the game where he pretty much just interacts with Farah

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.

my thoughts exactly laugh.gif
if i had to give it a score, 6/10 is more than enough for this movie.
fun to kill time,not something to watch seriously smile.gif

and for fans of the game, get to see how they change the story to make it into a movie nod.gif

Not faulting Jordan's decision, but based on ending, I can't see how a sequel could come. That is, if they want to bring in the sand monsters. But yeah, it was convenient and just cheap. I already expected it when they continue the journey.

But i'm ok. Just wishing for clearer action scenes next time. hehe.

i thought the ending blew the possibility of sand monsters wide open tongue.gif
