It doesn't offer much in the way of substance, but Prince of Persia is a suitably entertaining swashbuckler -- and a substantial improvement over most video game adaptations.

The sheer whoosh of the story line keeps you watching anyway, and, as the prince, Jake Gyllenhaal has a hearty good-naturedness that comes as a relief amid all the turbocharged antics. He wears his heroism lightly. Jun 4, 2010 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

A spectacularly silly video-game adaptation about a Fresh Prince of Gel Hair who runs around the desert with a magic dagger, a curious version of Alfred Molina and some hoity-toity chick who never breaks a sweat. It's sort of pointless. May 28, 2010 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

I couldn't help but think of other films such as "Pirates" and the "Indiana Jones" series, which covered the same material, and "Persia" paled in comparison. May 9, 2019 | Rating: C | Full Review…
