This 2005 Action/Adventure starring Orlando Bloom is a classic underdog knight story that was decent, but nothing exceptional. Personally, I’d take 300, Gladiator, or Braveheart over this one by a longshot. It somehow seemed a bit outdated for 2005. "Still in grief over his wife's sudden death, village blacksmith Balian (Orlando Bloom) joins his long-estranged father, Baron Godfrey (Liam Neeson), as a crusader on the road to Jerusalem. After a perilous journey to the holy city, the valiant young man enters the retinue of the leprous King Baldwin IV (Edward Norton), which is rife with dissent led by the treacherous Guy de Lusignan (Marton Csokas), who wishes to wage war against the Muslims for his own political and personal gain."
