Somehow I had never even heard of this movie until a couple summers ago, caught it on T.V. and loved it. The visuals are stunning, and it's a very well cast movie as well...except for Orlando Bloom. He's a fine enough actor, but the guy just has no leading actor presence at all, he's so forgettable. Really brought the whole movie down, which otherwise should've been a success. On that note, I miss the previous decade and all its big budget period piece movies, it's nothing but superhero movies now.

There's a director cut that is like 3 hours and some long but it does enhance the story quite a bit.
