Review: Kingdom Of Heaven
The new Ridley Scott Film, Kingdom Of Heaven.
Starring Orlando Bloom, Liam Neeson, Jeremy Irons.
The film traces the journey of Orlando Bloom as he goes from a penniless blacksmith, bastard son of a Baron (Liam Neeson) in England to a crusading knight in Jerusalem.
Unfortunately this film runs far too long at around 160 mins. While it's production value$ are obviously present it's craft is not. Yet another formulaic piece from Scott who continues to use the now tired techniques from such films as Blackhawk Down.
If I see one more dizzying shot of fast frame 16mm I'm going to scream! If you love your popcorn though then grab a coke an choctop too, you'll need them for this one. If not wait till it's a midday movie.
