I LOVE this movie! Its old fashioned entertainment with wholesome sweet values, corny yet exciting adventures for the leads, handsome actors and lovely actresses, fun stunts, cool special effects and classic Disney Fairy Tale storytelling. Its an old school modern classic based on retro video game problem solving and kick butt Biblical retribution for the villians who have it coming. SPOILER ALERT! Even better, any Death or Loss gets to magically be conquered by True Love and Heroic Sacrifice so you end the film feeling happy, safe, secure with the Belief that GOOD Triumphs Over EVIL, even if sometimes you make a few mistakes in judgements and trust the wrong people. Its actually pretty hardcore if you think about it. But the film is so silly, fast and fun that you don't get bogged down in the moral of the story unless you are thoughtful and think about it later which I did. That's why I bought the DVD cause this little B-movie never got any respect or love when it hit theaters and it doesn't get much play on any streaming service. If you want to have a great movie night with friends, family, kids, a date or to treat yourself (like I did)- give this film a chance. Fantasy/Adventure with Big Budget setting and costumes, casted with Oscar winning actors chewing the scenery and having a ball!!!! Read full review

If you love fantasy and magic you will love this movie. The characters capture your attention right away and it just keeps going. The battles are great with swords in the desserts . The story line is about the right thing and courage.

A very good example of time, religion and lifestyles of life in and around Egypt and the Middle east during this time. The special effects were very well done and really made an impact on the movie. Acting was good but I am quite puzzeled as to why modern day feminism is applied to a time when woman were treated as vassals and did not challenge men or society as equals. I find that putting women into roles that depict them as dominating, sword fighting amazons who lived as equals in both family and military life rather stupid. They did not and have rarely done so in muslim life. I believe western society tries to portray 16-18 century women as being modern day Germaine Greers is to put it bluntly-stupid and beyond belief. This silly portrayal of early women detracts from the movies and in fact real life. Why do we try and apply 21st century morals etc on the past does us no credit. Show people the truth and we might get somewhere.Read full review
A unique film that stands out on its own. Usually movies that are based off of video games don't fare well but Prince of Persia Sands of Time is truly epic on its own accord. It has a hint of 'Aladdin' in it but differs and weaves its own mythos that draws the viewer in as the plot unfolds. The dagger of time I felt was the most fascinating piece of the movie and I also enjoyed the humor. It's got action/adventure, suspense, romance and eye-popping special effects. I adore the woman who played Princess Tamina because I felt she was a tremendous role model for women. Beautiful, intelligent, resilient and crafty. She is a tough character who can handle herself quite well.
I love this movie. The action, suspense, romance and twist to keep you going thru the entire movie. The actions are right up there with Matrix
