incredible film. im a huge midevil history buff and i absolutely loved it. it was very non-hollywood, diddnt appeal to the consumer base en masse, and was particularly non cheesy. Excellent portrayal of the templar's savagry and the saracen's 'civilry.' Quality summation of a time with no innocents. Only thing I would have liked more would have neem to see some of the muslim's cities and palasaides and fuedal lands, simply for the compare/contrast of architecture and culture, and some groovy cinematography.
The whole time i just wanted to say, 'tis but a scratch!'
