This didn't recieve much attention it seems from the public or the studio for that matter but we found it to be quite good.
The story is a bit ponderous towards the middle but otherwise is quite engaging and was well acted by the entire cast. I was particularly impressed with the job Reese Witherspoon did... though that may just have been in contrast to her Legally Blonde roll :lol:
The PQ was stunning with lot's of deep inky blacks and shadows offset with vibrant scenery and lush period costumes. The SQ was also quite good. The dialogue was clear and the musical score rousing. The sub and surround activity was also more impressive than you might expect, particularly in the party and battle scenes.
Overall a well done movie definitely worth a rental or possibly a purchase if you enjoy period movies.
