A perzsa király örökbe fogadja Dastant, a bátor utcagyereket. Felnőve kiváló herceg és bátor harcos lesz belőle. A perzsák megtámadják Alamut városát, melynek hercegnője, Tamina őrzi az idő homokóráját és egy különleges tőrt, melyek segítségével visszafordítható az idő kereke. Ám mindez az emberi civilizáció pusztulásával járna. Dastannak hamarosan menekülnie kell, amikor álnok módon a nevelőapja, a király meggyilkolásával vádolják. Kénytelen összefogni Tamina hercegnővel, és együtt szállnak szembe a sötét erőkkel, melyek a tőrt akarják. (Fórum Hungary)

Gyllenhaal és Arterton két ok, amiért a jobb értékelés felé hajlok. Ennél szimpatikusabb párost nem találsz egy kalandjátékban. Magát a filmet látványos díszletek, jó zene és összességében kellemesen egzotikus hangulat hajtja, de eléggé árt magának az eredeti ötletek minimumával, a mellékszereplőkben rejlő színészi potenciál elhanyagolásával és a meglepően átláthatatlan akciójelenetekkel is. Sommers A múmia és Verbinski A Karib-tenger kalózai filmek is egyszerűen csiszoltabb darabok voltak.

Newell is good with actors – the mischievous and sparkly Gyllenhaal / Arterton duet is a pleasure to watch – but Newell is desperate not to do it with epic sauce. Even in Harry Potter, it was noticeable when some of the conversations were the funniest and most impressive things about the film. Prince of Persia is putting on a sterile crown. Futile fancy magic with a "game-like" camera, parkour walled in by the editing, and duels that are wooden and lack anything. Some of the images are unbearably plastic instead of fabulously magical. Nevertheless, I had a very satisfying time with the film. As a fairytale it works (thanks to the actors), only the feeling of plastic harmlessness of the environment limits the fantasy. The Prince of Persia is such a nice Disney figure who doesn't offend. Sometimes he delights, sometimes he jumps around without even plucking out of lethargy. Too bad, the potential was there, and it was considerable. I will miss Jake's veal conception in action fantasy.

The most talkative fairy tale Scheherazade ever told us. Prince Dastan has an argument for everything, and Princess Tamina has the sharpest tongue in the East, and among all the dialogue and arguments, you sometimes wish for the storyteller's spirit to reappear, spreading the action around her with every step, jump, or duel. And yet the plot entertained me more than I dared expect. The creator of the game added exactly those plot twists that fascinated me in the original, and the dagger, the hourglass, the villain, and the chemistry of the main duo decided that the atmosphere of Sands of Time had arrived.

Jerry emptied the golden Persian treasury, exchanged it for dollars, and entrusted two hundred million to an English director of conversational films. The trailers warned us, but I really didn't see this fiasco coming. Newell gives you proof that in Pirates of the Caribbean, Verbinski wasn't just a cheap routinist with a bloated wallet after a few minutes, when he shoots all the scenes in detail so that the action is a confused and cluttered show of people jumping all over the castle walls. Then this repeats after twenty minutes without any significant innovation. The film also severely lacks any mystique, so there is no risk of being drawn into the plot (which is more or less non-existent anyway). I was downright ashamed of Jake, but I admired Gemma immensely for two hours. This type of beautiful and beautifully-sarcastic actress has been missing in Hollywood blockbusters for a long time. I’m giving it two stars just for the fact that Clash of the Titans pissed me off a little more than this. I actually left the movie theater for 5 minutes in the second third, thinking I was going to give up...

Surprisingly, it exceeded my (to be honest, very low) expectations. Prince of Persia is a harmless summer blockbuster with a very likeable main couple. The story doesn’t try to be smart (any viewer with at least some experience will guess the ending) and the performances aren’t brilliant, but that would’ve been too much to expect. I had fun, so I’m satisfied. 6/10
