From a fan's point of view, it's not bad~

1. The male protagonist is very rascal. And it is said that it is not handsome enough.
2. The heroine is not enough pp, but the acting is good. There are several angles of eyes and silhouette like Hepburn.
3. The opening scene is clichéd enough. In particular, the scene where Dastan draws the double scimitars from the back is a naked tribute to Rambo's classic action of drawing the double guns from the back.
4. What a pity for a supporting role! Anyway, the knifeman threw a long-range precision-guided missile out, the chief should definitely add a bit of drama. I'm saying that if I direct, in the end, after Dastan goes back to the past and soaks in the princess, he must hold an ostrich tournament and let the chief attend it~~
5. All the actions, from the endless jumping over walls and eaves at the beginning, to the end The climax running and falling to the floor are all in line with the essence of the game. The director has done a very bad job in this regard, and Prince of Persia fans should be relieved.
6. Nothing else worth seeing. Plot belongs to idiots, logic belongs to jokes. Um. that's it.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time quotes

  • Prince Dastan: Nizam! Don't use the dagger to undo your past! It will unleash...

    Nizam: ...unleash what? God's wrath? Hell itself?

    [he kicks Dastan in the face]

  • Sheik Amar: [Dastan is encircled by men on horses, and a knife is thrown at him but deliberately misses] Do you know where you are, Persian? And yet you enter still? In the heart of Sudan, there is a tribe of warriors known as the Ngbaka. They strike fear into the hearts of all they cross. The Ngbaka are masters of the throwing knife, wielding blades said to have been blessed by the Creator himself. Their aim is so murderously accurate, they can decapitate *three men*... with one strike.

    [Dastan tries to grab the knife]

    Sheik Amar: Oh I wouldn't even bother doing that if I were you, d'you know why? This... is Seso. He's an Ngbaka. I had the good fortune of saving his life which means that he is now enduringly indebted to me. So tell me Persian: is there any good reason why I shouldn't tell Seso to put his next throw... just a little higher?

    [Seso poises to throw again; Dastan notes the previous knife is positioned above his groin and quickly shakes his head]
