Kingdom of Heaven

[Evil Agent]

I am shocked and appalled! ( )

I personally really enjoyed King Arthur, and have watched it several times. The 'extended' director's cut basically adds the blood and violence back to the battle scenes (shots that were removed to earn a different rating in theatres). I think the director's cut is much better.

I guess I'm in the minority, but I think both King Arthur and Alexander are very underrated movies, with a lot going for them. Of course, they are also both horribly flawed, I won't deny that. But they're really not as bad as people make them out to be. And although I expected good things from Kingdom of Heaven, I enjoyed those other 2 films much more.

I too, must express my shockedness and appalledness!
I rather enjoyed King Arthur, but I found Kingdom of Heaven lacking. There was nothing in it to keep me hooked apart from the poor leper king,

All in all, dissapointing.

Maybe I should rent this movie, and give it a second shot. I can't even remember this Leper King. Ed Norton? Somehow I forgot all about him. But I wouldn't mind checking out the Director's Cut anyway I guess.

Still, King Arthur was better. I just remembered another bonus: Stellan Skarsgard was in it, as the king of the invading Anglo Saxons. Him and his son had the funniest relationship ever. The movie rocks!

This Movie is one of my Five favourite movies of all time, and the extended directors cut just made it more clear and better.
