Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

[audioqueso]

Just watched this last night.
Really fun movie! I know it's based off a game, but I don't really know the game (except from the Super Nintendo days). Regardless, it had a good solid story. I didn't know what to expect at first, but the fun factor was like the first time you watched Pirates of the Caribbean. Didn't know what kind of movie it would be at first, but it ended up being a really fun movie.
Excellent director too. The camera shots were awesome, and the action seens were just right.

Jake Gyllenhaal did an excellent job of being lose-going-type-of-guy, but still emotionally serious. His acrobatic moves were fantastic too! Very impressive.

PQ was gorgeous. I can't comment on the SQ since I was not able to watch it with my audio system (just used tv speakers).

Definitely recommended! Great movie all around for any one in the family.

I probably wouldn't want to own this but I do intend to rent it eventually.

Fun, good SQ/VQ but it was definitely a renter IMO. Maybe if you have pre-teens around they might repeat watch it.

Rented this over the weekend. It reminded me of those sword and sandal flicks from the fifties that were often featured on a double bill with a western or musical. This modern sword and sandal fantasy flick was okay for the first hour but after 90 minutes I found myself wishing the film would hurry up and end. Fantastic PQ from Disney on Blu-ray.
