This is not a Hollywood movie, and if you are looking for pretty cgi, this is not for you.
While the first movie was slightly better, this movie is actually a very good attempt to portray what medieval times would have been like.
It does not try to be an action movie. Instead the deeper underlying message is one about the futility of war and the fragility of life.
I would only recommend this movie if you are into the whole medieval theme, but considering the budget they did a good job at trying to tell a story that is not just about sword-fights.
Its about men trying to live by honor and create a better future in times when civilization was but a vague concept.
If you can look past the low budget, this movie is a little gem. It does not try to be more then it is. It just tells events and how it affects the people involved in them.
You simply cannot compare this to large Hollywood productions, but it does a good job at portraying medieval times.
