- jackmeat10 ottobre 2025My quick rating - 6.9/10. I remember this being in the theater in 2009, but somehow I never got around to seeing it. I changed that on 4/4/2013. So anyway, this is a classic good versus evil movie that looks spectacular. The outdoor scenes taken in England and Prague are truly stunning. This starts off with action as our (anti)hero is an unstoppable soldier who kills and robs gold where and when he can. Well, then something happens, and he denounces those ways (remove the "anti" tag now) and becomes a man of peace. Here he joins a monastery and becomes a different person, but that doesn't mean evil is not still after him, in the name of Mordeci. The story that is interwoven actually works very well, not the typical "sold my soul to the devil for power" type thing. So why does the devil want Solomon so badly? That is what unfolds, and no, I am not telling you. So with your hero set who refuses to fight and gets kicked out of the monastery, he sets back out into the world and is picked up by a family after he gets roughed up by some thugs. Currently, Mordeci is creating an army of demonoids and ravaging the surrounding areas with no regard for human life. Well, the inevitable does happen, and the family with Solomon is confronted by a faction of these warriors, and you can figure out what happens. I won't give more of the plot away, but it is extremely well played out, so kudos to the writer of this one. The action sequences are very well choreographed, and the special effects, though sparsely used, were also well done, especially since they didn't overuse them. The acting was good; when you were supposed to feel anguish, the acting made you see it. Rachel Hurd-Ward (Meredith, a young girl) was exceptional, and I expect to see her more (I had to look, I know that was the girl from the movie Perfume). James Purefoy (Solomon) also played well; the only other thing I know him from is the TV show Revenge. Yes, there are plenty of religious undertones in this movie, as there should be for the topic that is tackled, and it isn't done in much of an overbearing way. I can't believe I let this one slide for this long, but glad I finally saw it. You will be as well.
