'The Eagle' Review

"The Eagle" surely isn't a movie you expect to suck, seeing as it at least has scenery on its side. But not even rocky Roman hills or the chiseled majesty of Jamie Bell's abs and Channing Tatum's jawline can better the jabbing irritation of this broadsword adventure.


My full review of the film is now online at SouthPhillyReview.com. It's my first one-star review of 2011. CLICK HERE to read  it.

*Perfectionist's Note:  In the body of the review, the first paragraph is supposed to end with "does not a fine performer make," not "does not make a  fine performer." I'm no stylistic slouch.

this looks poor - your review confirms the suspcions. Based on early box office figures, I'm not expecting this to be a franchise, that's for sure.
