The movie is entertaining and the duration of a 115 minutes is apt. Any longer would have been boring. They could have made some changes though. I would like to have seen more stuff around the Persian Bazaars and more room for the royal family - the king, the Nizam and the 3 brothers - show more of the story around them.
Alfred Molina (the Ostrich racer) needs special mention for the contemporary jokes around small business and taxes in America.
Gemma Arterton while beautiful is a bit stiff and her romance with Jake (the prince) needed more screen time.
Last line of the review is really well said.Movie was ok, not a gr8 story, just special effects.Since there is no other movie against it in theatres, it can be watched for timepass.
An okay movie with good non stop action -but very predictable and alas no chemistry between lead pair. The set is offcourse awesome and sword play if not as exiting as the game is decent enough . Also a sensible review for a change from raja sen
to compare this action sequences with wannabees like Akshay kumar!!!, if u have actually played the game the movements and the parkour sequences have been done to perfection, its a good entertainer, not every movie has to be an oscar material..its total paisa vasool

Prabhas, I think you are new to Raja Sen's reviews. He doesn't write to inform the readers. It is just a showoff of his (unnecessary) vocabulary. Don't get bogged down by the review, just watch out for the starts at the bottom. In this particular case I agree with Raja Sen. The film is fantastic.
