Le destin d'un empire. La lutte pour l'honneur.
Au Moyen Âge, dans une vaste contrée multiethnique, le seigneur Bartok est sommé de se rendre au château de l'empereur pour lui rendre hommage. Mais à son arrivée, il froisse l'influent ministre Gezza Mott en refusant de lui verser un pot de vin. S'ensuit un combat au cours duquel Bartok, bien qu'affaibli par une maladie incurable, passe près de tuer le ministre corrompu. Traduit en justice devant l'empereur, le vénérable seigneur est condamné à mort et, à la suggestion de Mott, exécuté par son propre commandant et héritier présomptif, le vaillant Raiden. De retour chez lui, ce dernier, rongé par la culpabilité, renoue avec les démons de l'alcool et repousse son épouse, qui ne le reconnaît plus. Le lieutenant de Raiden, ainsi que ses hommes, n'ont toutefois pas renoncé à se venger de l'infâme Gezza Mott. Lequel, en proie à la paranoïa, a réquisitionné des milliers de soldats pour le défendre.

The first and last chapters offer every stereotype you'd expect. Some code of honor, betrayal, revenge. All in the most basic variation, with no finesse at all. The only part that stood out, [spoiler]was about what they were willed to endure[/spoiler], before they get their revenge. That made this movie a different but not an ultimately interesting experience.
It disappointed me deeply... And then it was ok. The whole middle age attempt was not good, but the movie kind of gets better if you imagine it's a alternative reality The enemy they face was week and stupid [spoiler]And had no real reason to be feared, ok we hear of a very disturbing past for our knight, but what had he really done to the Gezza before invading the castle?[/spoiler] Morgan Freeman is awesome, but his part was poor and his character simple I have the feeling the movie takes too much time [spoiler]in dealing with Gezza trying to prove that Raiden is done, but we should have had more time to know the characters [/spoiler] But [spoiler]when the plot twists [/spoiler] the movie gets much better and you start getting involved. But the worst part of this movie is without question this swords... what is it? Katana? Swiss sword? Grill spit?
What a cracking film that had me fooled, entertained and pleased! 7/10
Well... I used to like the middle age, Morgan Freeman and even Clive Owen. Now I know why I liked them separately.
