Ok, so it might be a predictable fight fest, but Dr Mark's entertained all the same.

    "Having gone in with very low expectations, I was just moderately fed up. Which is pretty good" that will be on the poster

    I think Mark needs to realise that some video games have amazing narrative structure. Prince of Persia is not one of them, but there you go.

    They could review telephone books and I'd still watch these clips. I agree with the Doctor on 90% of his calls, but really watch it 'cause I love his passion.

    hahaha. Classic Kermode. There's only one Prince of Persia that's interesting to me - and that was a rotoscoped side-scroller from 1989.

    @thejobloshow The original was great, but the 2003 Sands of Time game that this film is based on is very good too - have a read of Edge magazine's Time Extend article on it (it's on their website).

    @RobohX360 The gaming industry has been grown up for a long time it is the media which has portrayed it as a kids only affair. For instance half-life released in 1998 was a truly groundbreaking and disturbing. More adventurous than most movies by never telling you what was going on.

    maybe this movie wasn't the "best" it is no lord of the rings, but I liked it, call it guilty pleasure or what ever. besides I think the best aspect of the movie is the dynamic between the prince and princess

    @RobohX360 It's more that Hollywood can't make a video game based movie that isn't a total cash-in/attempt to tap into another medium's fanbase. Not to mention there has yet to be a video game movie that isn't just a summer blockbuster action movie or horrid horror flick. As for Alan Wake, it's hardly even a video game - it's an interactive narrative, more a chose-your-own-adventure book. Absolutely abysmal gameplay, great storytelling.

    @ThupinTheLird Abysmal gameplay? Come on. It's really no worse that of Resident Evil 5. 'Bad' would be a stretch given what passes for good in the survival horror genre. 'Abysmal' makes you look like a lousy troll. Also, you call it a "choose your own adventure" and yet there is absolutely zero player choice in the narrative. Have you even played Alan Wake? I seriously think you might be confusing it with Heavy Rain.
