The 13th Warrior

Description

Antonio Banderas (THE MASK OF ZORRO) brings huge star power to an immensely thrilling action-adventure from the hit-making director of DIE HARD and THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR! An exiled ambassador far from his homeland, Ahmed (Banderas) comes across a fierce band of warriors who are being attacked by ferocious creatures legendary for devouring all living things in their path! And when an old fortune-teller warns the combatants that they are doomed to failure without a 13th warrior, Ahmed is given no choice but to join their battle and help conquer the mysterious enemy! Suspenseful and endlessly exciting, this exhilarating hit is sure to thrill anyone who enjoys action on an epic scale!

What happened to The 13th Warrior? Directed by John McTiernan (Die Hard), it's the tale of young Arab ambassador Ahmahd ibn Fahdalan (Antonio Banderas), who's vanquished from his homeland for loving the wrong woman. On his journeys he associates with a ragtag group of Vikings who are traveling back to their homeland to confront a nefarious threat that's cloaked in such superstition they're forbidden to speak its name. It is prophesied by a witch doctor that 13 warriors must confront the evil; however, the 13th chosen man must not come from the north. Suddenly Banderas is forced into the breach, somewhat against his will. More poet than battle-worn warrior, he must not only fight the aggressors but come to terms with the unfamiliar Norse culture. What follows is a vigorous and brutal adventure reminiscent of Kurosawa's Seven Samurai. Sumptuous and invigorating battle sequences fill the screen from beginning to end as the brave Norsemen battle insurmountable odds.

Sounds good. So why did this film, once known as the Eaters of the Dead, sit on studio shelves for two years? Presumably because of the thoughtless editing that trimmed down the film to its bare bones, crafting an actionfest out of an epic. It's not often that you crave for a movie to be longer, but The 13th Warrior could've benefited from fleshing out of its subplots and characters. On the surface it's good eye candy with some fine pulse-quickening moments, and Banderas and the accompanying cast turn in sympathetic performances, epitomizing camaraderie in the face of impending doom. However, if you're looking for a good thematic tale from the Dark Ages (akin to Braveheart), you may be disappointed. --Jeremy Storey

Summary: "13th Warrior DVD"

I had problems with my DVD players accepting this DVD because the DVD was from out of the country. It took several hours to get one DVD player to accept any DVD from other sources and it finally worked.

Summary: "The luckiest number..."

I have seen this a few times, none recent. It is based on Crichton's Eaters of the Dead, which is based on Beowulf and on Ahmad ibn Fadlan ibn al-Abbas ibn Rasid ibn Hammad's "Kitab ila Mulk al-Saqaliba" from the 10th century. It's a credit to the film that when I was reading bits of Ahmad ibn Fadlan's works recently, I thought of the movie.

It's a strong film - unfortunately even such excellent sources are no guarantee, as we saw in the 2007 Beowulf movie. This is one of the few films that I prefer to the book (Crichton's: not the original Beowulf nor the translations like Seamus Haney's or Burton Raffel's and certainly not Ahmad ibn Fadlan's works). I though Jurassic Park was a better book than the film - although the film was still a good adaptation. Writers like Crichton, David Morrell and Stephen King seem to write in ways that lend themselves well to film adaptations.

Beowulf is a personal favorite - despite the fact that it's obviously myth since the Danes would have been sending heroes to rescue others. =) Gareth Hinds made a brilliant adaptation of Beowulf as a graphic novel, basing the text on Grummere's translation.

This is a compelling story, with a believable - if uncommon - setting which requires little suspension of disbelief. The scripting and characterizations are strong, and the wardrobe and settings are well done. The contrast of the clean, fine Arabic sensibilities with the rough, crude European sensibilities are historically accurate and well used, leading to a little humor both for ibn Fadlan, in his role as the chronicler, and at his expense. The tale bridges the centuries well, although it does leave one hungry for more (this is why I gave it four stars).
