If you can catch this film in 3-D, do so. I wasn't expecting much after seeing the first trailer. In fact, I was expecting it to suck. I was pleasantly surprised. Though the story may be legendary, the screenplay isn't exactly the stuff of legend, with several campy moments and unintended laughs. But that's not the movie's appeal. Go for the visual thrills. I've never seen anything quite like it, with massive amounts of animated blood and gore (and nudity; definitely NOT for young children), the fights scenes are fantastic, the landscapes are majestic, every last detail accounted for. I don't know how the film will play out in 2-D. I don't want to know. Catch it if you can.
