This is the best movie I have seen since Lord of The Rings.I thought the dialogue was good and the pace was also good.I like epic movies and I remember Saladin from history.I did think Orlando did well except his character fought too well with little training.I loved the shots, a lot of master shots and Ridley caught the scenery to give the movie a sense of scale.I was glad the knights were shown with their arrogance and also the fear on the other side when the Arabs had to first scale the wall.People forget back then Knights had no schooling but the monks were educated.Yea Jeremy Irons! I thank you Mister Scott for this movie and the script writer also.
