From executive producer Ridley Scott comes a sweeping, action-packed sage of epic battles, political intrigue and forbidden passion, set in a time when the lines between heroism and savagery were etched in fire and carved out with broadswords.
After the fall of Rome, visionary warlord Marke seeks to unite the squabbling English tribes to form one strong nation and defeat the brutal Irish King Donnchadh.
But when Lord Marke`s greatest and most loyal knight, Tristan, falls in love with Isolde, a beautiful Irish woman, it threatens to destroy the fragile truce and ignite a war. In the spirit of Braveheart and A Knight`s Tale, TRISTAN & ISOLDE is a rousing tale of trust and treachery that will leave you breathless!

Reviewed by: KS

The tragic non epic
While this film includes some aesthetic similarities and motifs found in Scott's earlier work, the action to emotion ratio is somewhat imbalanced. An epic narrative unfolds pleasantly if not somewhat predictably. The fast editing technique of the action sequences detracts from the main love story, acted with enthusiasm but with little lasting impression upon the viewer. A repeated refrain is the offered conclusion. Two abigious lovers and a King who is outsmarted and betrayed, if you count a secret tunnel as depth to this common narrative of love betrayed, then you will be happy with the film. Unconvincing and dissapointing.
