The 13th Warrior

Saw The 13th Warrior. I generally don't like war films, but this was alright. I liked that death was treated semi-seriously (tho not realistically of course, and there were (as ever) hundreds of minions carelessly mowed down.) I kept wondering how Antonio Banderas stayed so clean-shaven. It suffered from the same overwrought sad trumpets and stupid manhood-proving sequences that all war movies have but then, what can you expect? Silliness aside, it was entertaining.
