This was said to be amazing when it came out. Years later, I watched it
only as part of this project and I knew what to expect. The trailers
focused largely on action, specifically one shot showing: rolling away
from tigers. Little to no mention of story existed in peoples reaction
to the film, and it became easy to see why.
It tries to be epic, but fails.. in epic fashion. The story is pared
down to incredible simplicities, making this a familial story, not one
where cities are on the line. In short, it wasn't a dissapointment - I
expected apathy.
