Sorry to disappoint. The movie kinda sucked. Very dark. Made a Shakespearian Tragedy look like child's play. Several characters miscast (Kidman, for example). An artsy-fartsy film at best. Alexander Skarsgård was good but would not give you a dime for the rest of the characters. Expected a lot of good swordplay but it never really happened. Too darks to see anything, you see? Don't believe the positive reviews...
