Can't even begin to tell you how boring this film was. The beginning made no sense at all (and I payed as much attention I could), the characters are underdeveloped, the 3rd act was ridiculous, and not to mention it wasn't even 2 hours long, yet it felt longer than Batman V Superman. Disappointing, clichéd, and a script that was probably 4 and half pages long. Most of the time it was just people killing each other and other boring nonsense I could care less about. Can't say I expected much when I watched it

This is very simply a fun film. It has some interesting twists. It has a good pace. It's decently acted with many supporting actors any film buff will recognize. For those who are expecting "Seven Samurai", I suggest you watch "Seven Samurai". This is not a cerebral film although it is above par visually and the direction is not bad at all. I own the DVD and have watched it many times. As I said, a fun flick.

I have never understood exactly why the critics panned this movie. It's Michael Crichton ' s first book written while he was still in med school. The acting is solid and the story full of action with a truly heroic end. And, it's all loosely based on Beowulf for crying out loud.
