In 13th-century England, a Knights Templar and few of the Barons men, fight to defend Rochester Castle against the tyrannical King John.
King John Lackland reneges in 1215, the year the barons force him to sign to Magna Carta, on its parliamentary terms to resume his tyrannical misrule, and raised an army of pagan mercenaries to smash those barons who dare resist again. William d'Aubigny's warrior band, including knight Templar Thomas Marshal and his squire Guy, decides to make a stand in Rochester, a strategic castle to bar the road to London, so they force its lord, baron Reginald de Cornhill, to side with them after eliminating the Danish watchdogs. Captain Tiberius's mercenary band fails for months to make their numeric superiority count during a bloody siege, over which John presides personally, eager to take the castle before French and/or domestic rebel reinforcements may arrive. Baron Reginald's wife Isabel regrets their arranged marriage, enough to nearly-openly lust for handsome crusade veteran Thomas, who however takes his order vows seriously.
This movie is so excruciatingly, egregiously, completely, and quite laughably bad that words are almost inadequate to convey quite how terrible it is.
The historical accuracy of this movie makes Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" look like a well- researched, scholarly documentary. While the broad strokes of the story – Rebels led by William d'Aubigny seizing Rochester Castle, King John's forces laying siege to the castle – are correct, the manner in which the story is presented, and the details of the tale, are laughable. John did not lay siege to Rochester Castle at the head of an army of Danish mercenaries, Pope Innocent did not support John's right to rule as a heaven-proclaimed monarch as proclaimed in the movie (though he did support John against the barons, declaring the Magna Carta unjust – but only because it undermined an A.D. 1203 agreement that made him John's feudal lord. Innocent was just protecting his position over John in this), d'Aubigny did not take and hold Rochester with a small band of misfit adventurers, etc., etc.
I rented this movie based on the apparent strength of the cast (Paul Giamatti, James Purefoy, Derek Jacobi, Brian Cox) and the general historical time frame which the story occupies. All I can say after having seen it is that all of these well-known actors must have been in dire need of cash to sign on to work on this laughable piece of nonsense. Paul Giamatti has a talent for, and a tendency toward, overacting, as he does in this film in the role of King John, but he has also displayed fine, nuanced performances in many of his better roles. Derek Jacobi doesn't really do much in this film but whine about "his" castle being destroyed – it is sad to see so fine an actor shuffle and whine in such a disagreeable, and minor, role. The combination of a laughably bad story and amateurish directing conspire to bring out the worst in these and many of the other actors in the film.
Other dreadfully bad tidbits: Marks, the archer in the rebel band, is depicted as being left- handed, as are a number of the other archers in the movie. At this time in history, as it was pretty much up until the 20th Century, left-handedness was frowned upon (at best), and was usually actively discouraged. A person who was naturally left-handed would have been forced to learn a skill like archery right-handed. Also, after marching to Rochester Castle at the head of a lightly-armed band of Danish mercenaries, John all of a sudden has an entire battery of trebuchets at his disposal, and then, with little in the way of tools or materials at hand, the rebels in the castle whip up a small treb of their own to take on John's siege tower (which looked as if it had been constructed out of packing crates and pallets).
The costumes were of uneven quality, at best. Armor looked fair, for the most part, some of the featured weapons (Marshall's sword, for example) were of good quality (though up close were seen to have obviously blunt edges), but the huge battleaxe wielded by "Tiberius" (a Danish warlord with a Roman name?) was an obvious cast artifact – a total anachronism. The clothing worn by the peasants and characters of the lesser orders looked like a cross between S&M wear (waaay too much leather), and a weird medieval pseudo-steampunk look.
The list goes on and on – or could, if this indexing this movie's fault were worth any more of my time.
Bloody version based on historical events with overwhelming battles and great production values with James Purefoy as the fictional Templar knight Thomas Marshall , leader of a motley crew of tough , battle-hardened warriors/underdogs who try to defend a castle besieged by the army of the blood-crazed King John . In 13th-century England, some of the most important barons engaged in open rebellion against the King of England , as they have forced their cruel King John (Paul Giamatti who filmed his role in 7 days) to put his royal seal to the Magna Carta in the year 1215 . Magna Carta was the first document forced onto an English King by a group of his subjects, the feudal barons, in an attempt to limit his powers by law and protect their privileges .In return for King John's submission to his papal and universal authority, Innocent III declared the Magna Carta annulled, though many English Barons did not accept this action. Yet within months of pledging himself to the great charter , the King reneged on his word and assembled a mercenary army formed by Danish warriors (led by Vladimir Kulich in a similar character to The 13º warrior) on the south coast of England with the intention of bringing the barons and the country back under his despotic rule . As a small group of Knights (Brian Cox , Jason Flemyng , Jamie Foreman , Mackenzie Crook) commanded by Marshal (James Purefoy) fight to defend Rochester Castle against the nasty King John . Barring his way stood the mighty Rochester castle whose owner was the Baron Cornhill (Derek Jacobi married to Kate Mara) , a place that would turn the symbol of the rebel's momentous fight for honor and freedom .
The movie has great action sequences well staged with stylish and vitality , thrills , a little bit of romance and is pretty entertaining . Although is a little revisionist about characters , history and time when is developed the action in a dirty , gritty Middle Age . As the movie makes a big deal out of the supposedly deathly rivalry between John and the Templars , there wasn't one , the actual John awarded the Templars special privileges , including exemption from all taxation and extraordinary protection of their ownerships and in 1215, when this movie is set , the Templars let John use their headquarters , the New Temple in London, as a treasury . King John stayed there often, and stored the crown jewels and his top-secret documents there , as ¨Ironclad¨ has this entirely wrong . Stunning battles scenes illuminate the full-blown feats with a plethora of engaging action set pieces on the combats in which the heads and limbs are slice off here and there . Casting is frankly excellent . Special mention to treacherous , despised king John magnetically performed by Paul Giamatti as an evil and crazed ruler in a sensationalistic interpretation .Despite some critics' complete and utter distaste for the film , I found it entertaining , well-acted, and fast-paced . There are great action sequences including the battle against an impressive fortress and the final confrontation at the climax of the film . Impeccable and evocative cinematography by David Eggby . Magnificent and thrilling musical score by Lorne Balfe . In production a sequel also directed by Jonathan English (Minotaur) and Steven McDool who penned the story which will center on one of the few survivors of the Great Siege of Rochester Castle who is now fighting to protect his family's estate from fierce Celtic raiders .
The picture deals with historical facts about John Lackland who was king of England from 1199 to 1216. Few monarchs have been subject to such appalling publicity as John . Although by no means lovable , he was an able administrator and spent more time in England than his predecessor and elder brother Richard I but he was jailed by Leopold of Austria, returning from Crusades. Being dead king Henry II , then Richard Lionheart was crowned until the third crusade which was crowned John with no Land . The English domain over France will cause length conflict known the hundred years wars(1339-1453). Some barons began to conspire against King John in 1209 and 1212 ; promises made to the northern barons and John's submission to universal rule of the papacy in 1213 delayed a French invasion . Over the course of his reign a combination of higher taxes, unsuccessful wars that resulted in the loss of English barons' titled possessions in Normandy following the Battle of Bouvines (1214), and an ongoing conflict with the Pope Innocent III had made King John unpopular with many of his baron s. The 1215 charter , a seminal document that upheld the rights of free-men , required tyrannical King John of England to proclaim certain liberties , and accept that his will was not arbitrary, for example by explicitly accepting that no "freeman" (in the sense of non-serf) could be punished except through the law of the land, a right which is still in existence today.
Like all sieges, this offers moments of choppy terror and excitement followed by dull sit-it-out-and-starve spots. Straddled between uproarious schoolboy tosh and serious historical movie, this still offers enough dismemberments, royal tantrums and portcullis-rammings to make for a lively Saturday night out.
