I hope Martinelli has hired some good writers this time, I saw his "Barbarossa": technically excellent but appalling script with also one of the worst lead actors in history. |

Script? Who cares about a script? If he films the Hussari attack on the Turkish camp properly, it will be worth the price of admission! |

Don't raise your hopes! That was another big problem in Barbarossa: the battle of Legnano at the end of the movie was the biggest letdown I ever felt in cinema. Good photography, good editing, good direction but absolutely nothing that bore a resemblance to the historical battle (or to all others medieval battles too) |

I care about a script. Some of the scenes in the movie 1612 were pretty spectacular but overall it sucked. I need a movie to be good, not just to have a good battle scene. It is often the script that I remember best. For all of the awesome fighting footage in Waterloo the best part of the whole movie is the line where Wellington declares his ignorance of farming. |

I agree with Pictors Studio. Another "good" example of terrible film is recent "Taras Bulba" from Russia. Great casting and costumes, horrible film. Even battle scenes are crappy. |

The victory is credited to an Italian friar and the "brilliant war strategy of … Janos Sobieski"? I fear for the authenticity of the history at the cost of story. BTW: The Ottomans certainly did not attack Vienna to reach Rome. I'll give it a try, though it will be hard pressed to dissappoint my hopes. |
