Kingdom of Heaven (2005) Review

This epic takes us to the crusades, where we encounter a young blacksmith (Orlando Bloom, who seems to have a thing for acting in epics) just as he learns that a passing lord is his father.

The lord invites him to come on a crusade to Jerusalem with him, but he declines, opting to stay where he is, and that he does until the local priest comes to talk about his recently deceased wife. That's when our young blacksmith spots his wife's necklace on the priest and kills him, then promptly takes off after his father.

About Celluloid Heroes

Welcome to Celluloid Heroes! Here you will find movie reviews of all shapes and sizes. No stone is left unturned, and that is meant quite literally. In fact, you are probably quite unlikely to find the best of the best, as that's something that you can find elsewhere. Here you're more likely to find the dregs of the movie world than anything else.

As to the name? It's actually from a song by The Kinks, and while it may or may not have something directly to do with movies, it does mention quite a few movie stars and things that make you think about movies, and well, it just seemed appropriate. Hopefully you'll agree, and if not, I suspect it won't get in the way too much.

Thanks for visiting, enjoy your stay, and come back often..
