Excellent movie, a mix of at least three distinct stories: The last emperor of the western roman empire mixed with the legend of King Arthur and his sword Ex Calibur, along with the tyrant Lord Vortgyn (Vortigern). A bit too much pathos occasionally, maybe yes, but not disturbing. Great casting, in particular Thomas Sangster as the young Romulus Augustus, embodying very well both the vulnerable young boy overwhelmed by his duties and the dignity of his role as the emperor of the western roman empire, and Ben Kingsley as his magical and cryptic teacher.

Seen it recently rather by accident, and liked it immediately. Based on the apparently true story of the last adolescent Caesar who was expelled from Rome by the Goths, making the stretch into the legend of King Arthur, it’s a likable story well told and put onto the silver screen (maybe a little bit too much pathos towards the end). Perfect casting, Colin Firth and Sir Ben Kingsley at their best, Nanny McPhee’s Thomas Sangster a great and convincing choice for the young Romulus Augustus Caesar, who has to grow from the overwhelmed boy not really fitting into the throne to the leader of what’s left of his empire. Great chemistry among the main actors, along with a good supporting cast. So, great entertainment overall, enjoyed it!

Love love this movie!! There is nothing bad that could be said that would change my mind! It is unfortunate that many do not see what all I do in it! And...it is clean!

most interesting movie - see stories can be told without excessive nudity, sexually explicit or exteme gore - lack of profanity was also a treat.

very decent movie - the detractors would be the 6% that loved the Simpson Movie

No, a movie does not necessarily need top notch CGI or a huge budget. It needs a story - this movie doesn't have one. Greater movies were made for less money. I kept wondering what they spend the 70 million on (besides paying off the actors). Flat and boring. Those who agree - just nod your head. Those who don't - ....don't nod your head. Peace.

Somewhere in this slow moving film there is an interesting story.Unfortunately the film plodded along with very little passion or excitement.A larger budget might have helped and I think that the leads were embarrassed by the lame dialogue which shows in their acting.Stay home and watch 300 Spartans again.

Very good. Story, action and not too much gore!! Very very good acting!

There are people of all sorts and tastes so I believe that critics and viewers alike should refrain posting negative comments about one movie or another. I saw The Last Legion just recently and liked it very much. I'm sick and tired of all the computer enhanced movies that deal with excessive grossness, destruction and sexual content. The more hype the movie gets the less I want to pay to see it, even on TV, and usually causes me to dislike the actors too. It was a relief to come out of a movie without getting a headache because of loud music background or a fast moving camera. If you are expecting Gladiator or 300 you will be dissappointed for sure so go in and enjoy it for what it is. I wi

Goofy...wait for the video.

Aishwarya Rai is very pretty but a horrible actress, because she puts more into posing and looking pretty than actually making a good theatrical performance. It was a good idea but a very lame film. It felt like Xena or some made for TV film, not very good.

Worst movie of the summer - aside from Skinwalkers. Plot holes that you could float and aircraft carrier thru. Cheap set dec, cheap costumes, poor performances.

"Horrible. The Adventures of Sinbad was better thought out than this movie. Historically incorrect and no real content to the plot line, go and rent King Arthur.

This movie is great if you are 12. They could have done so much with this movie but didn't. There are holes in the story and at some points I wasn't sure that I wasn't watching fighting scenes from monty python search for the holey grail.

LAME!

User review rating: 0 August 18, 2007

Not only is the story and acting bad, but the production value is poor and historically incorrect. This movie was originally made in 2005, and only now it's getting distributed. Do yourselves a favour and watch it on-line if you are dying to see what happens. I am just sorry to have watched this movie, utter waste of time and probably only entertaining to grade school kids.

Stupid, even my 12 ear old nephew was laughing throughout it. Poor Excaliber, such a great legend, but why do people have to ruin it, shame on you!

User review rating: 0 August 18, 2007

The story line was great from the start to the middle, after that it was just a mess. Defeats the whole myth of the Arthurian Legend.

You're absolutely right about going in without expecting anything. What a surpise... AMAZING movie it moved fast an entertained us all. Great pic

Where did this come from? When looking for a movie I saw this playing and even though I'd heard nothing about it, decided to go. Great film with an engaging plot that moved quickly. Sometimes it's good to go into a movie with no hype and have it surprise you. That's what happened to us today.
