It's pretty good but not as good as the first one unfortuntely, but that should not come as a surprise for most sequels anyway. My only major gripe is that the battle with the Spanish was shorter than I expected, seems the movie is just building up this event and when it happens, poof!, over before it started.

Plus, tell me if I'm crazy or not but the Spanish king looks alot like the the president of Iran, you tell me after you watch the movie

That period of history is one my wife is really into, and any books on our bookshelves that aren't about planes, submarines or dogs, are genarally about that era, so I expect to be seeing it along with her. I only have a passing interest in the period myself, even so, it's supposed to be very good by most accounts, so I'm looking forward to checking it out, no doubt while my wife points out innaccuracies, like I do when we watch war movies:rotfl:

I love the way that two Aussies play so well the roles of major English figures in history.

Seriously, I loved the first film and from the reviews that I have read the second one sounds almost as good. Hope to see it in the next week or so.
