Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A jumbled confusion of action with some beautiful panoramas
Review: This film could have been great. The incredible battle sequences at the castle and the detail on the medieval customs and architecture were wasted on the poorest adaptation of a book I have ever seen. This should have been split into two movies (ala Lord of the Rings) or at the very least run a half hour longer.

Too much of the exisitng footage was wasted on implausible escapes and mindless chases, and not enough set-up was engineered to make the audience believe in time travel or what the connection was between the archeological dig and the medieval war. The concept of the little time-transport amulets idiotic and I found myself neither caring which side won (Emglish vs. French) nor understanding why they were fighting.

There was nothing in this film to capture my imagination. Just a whirlwind of disjointed action sequences splendidly filmed and passably acted.
