The potential for a true epic of a generation was there.
The writing, was not. ...Not by a long shot. The anachronisms were FAR too many, especially amongst colloquialisms.
10's: The idea. The story. The imagry. The costumes. The soundtrack.
What could have easily been a solid epic staple of multiple genres fell far short. It felt exponentially disappointing as one aspect was barely watchable and another was absolutely inspiring.
Very worth the watch. See for yourself where they went wrong. See, first hand, what happens when an amazing, epic, story is systematically destroyed by a director that lacks the depth of vision that they sought.
Also, the initial credit song... That's a 4.
