Title: Give it a fair chance
Review: I think that too many people have not given this film a fair chance. I'd heard all about the problems involved in making the film. I knew who the principles were (Crichton, Banderas, McTiernan). I wasn't expecting Shakespeare and I didn't get Shakespeare. What I did get was nearly two hours of a decent, entertaining, hack and slash adventure story and I was happy with that.I think because it takes place in the Middle Ages and has lots of sabre-rattling people compare this film to Braveheart. C'mon folks, Braveheart was a one of a kind, sweeping, romantic epic. Hollywood rarely makes those anymore. 13th Warrior is a genre piece, an action movie. Hollywood makes dozens of those a year. And as action flicks go this is a pretty good one.
