Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, a review by dfmorgan

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Year: 2010
Director: Mike Newell
Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Ben Kingsley

OverviewWatched: 6th Feb. 2011
My Thoughts: An enjoyable romp. I guessed the bad bad guy early on in the film, part way through I started to wonder if I was right but was vindicated with my decision before the end. Having played one of the "Prince of Persia" platform games I could see how they incorporated some the games styling into this film and its action. Most of the time the brain was parked in neutral but a couple times I had to get into first gear but generally a good action romp.

My Rating: An enjoyable romp for a 3

I treaded this one. I enjoyed the first one at the time, but since then, I was not much of a fan of Kevin Smith. Probably since he started smoking weed when working on Zack & Miri with Seth Rogen. At least since then he didn't make a good movie. But as I am hyped to see Clerks 3 (there is no German disc release yet, so I am probably ordering soon a UK release), because I am a fan of the second one, I thought I will finally add the sequel to "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" to my collection. And what I heard of Clerks 3, I probably will enjoy it.

This movie is very meta. Even more so, than the first one. But it has been awhile, since I saw that one. Some of the jokes I liked. I can recommend this movie only for fans of the first one. But as far as I remember, the first one was better.

The Good Old Days TV Thread, a review by addicted2dvd

My Thoughts:
While this is an alright episode... it really wasn't anything too special to me. I imagine that is because of all the classical music playing in this one. It is an obvious homage (Read: Rip-off) of Phantom of the Opera. But all said and done it is a decent episode... but not one that I would consider a favorite.

My Rating:
