The Last Legion Reviews
Paying scant attention to either historical accuracy or character complexity, the Xena: Warrior Princess director Lefler goes for a straightforward good versus evil plot with a predictable climactic battle.

As the Roman Empire crumbles, undemanding escapist entertainment with wonderful production design and a cast.

There are, after all, aimed at young audiences plenty of movies more mean-spirited, indiscriminate and obnoxious than The Last Legion. But at the same time there are plenty that are, alas, less frustrating.

No twist is too farfetched for this Dino De Laurentiis epic.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 27, 2007
A good cast wallow about in a story you can't believe for a moment.

Colin Firth is not an actor who projects sparkling joie de vivre at the best of times, and The Last Legion, a cod-Roman reimagining of Arthurian myth, is very much not the best of times.

Tosh, but disarmingly sincere.

A hunk of old Brie, left all day in the glove compartment in a car on a hot summer's day, could not smell more ripe than this absurd sword'n'sandal Roman movie.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 19, 2007
Silly and camp.
| Oct 19, 2007
A novel hybrid of swords, sandals, horned helmets and furs, this really is a load of old rubbish, but there's some fun to be had, especially for boys who like to have mock sword fights with wooden sticks.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 19, 2007
Paper-thin characters, stilted conversations and abrupt editing mean this is hard to get involved with, and its link with Arthurian legend feels contrived and clichéd.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 19, 2007
Crudely mangling Arthurian legend into Roman history, this creaky swords 'n' sandals romper trundles forward like a hurriedly upholstered 온라인카지노추천 movie.
| Original Score: 2/6 | Oct 19, 2007
The action sequences are handled well enough but the CGI isn't up to snuff in a tale that barely merits the retelling.
| Oct 19, 2007
This attempt at reimagining the Arthurian legend fails to raise the pulse due to some leaden dialogue and unconvincing performances.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 19, 2007
A wannabe sword-and-sandals saga.
| Original Score: 0.5/5 | Sep 1, 2007
...makes a hash of history, but...just think of it as a nifty adventure dreamed by an imaginative boy who dozed off in his grandfather's library.

Here's a strange concept: A goofy, Indiana-Jones-type spin on the pre-Arthur legend.

While it's almost certainly guaranteed to be a box office bomb, I'm suspecting this goofy little adventure will earn a few bemused fans once it hits DVD.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 26, 2007
A passably entertaining hodgepodge of sword-and-sandal film clichés and Arthurian romance.
