“The fighting here is rough and realistic. There's a recognition - still too rare in cinema - then when one is fighting with a sword and one's life is on the line, the sword is only one of the weapons one might use - kicks, punches, headbutts and so on are just as important. Although there's not much emphasis on gore, nothing here has been prettified. The scene with the bear has a distance, fairy tale quality, but later fights are scrappy and ugly as they ought to be, and there are a couple of spectacular set pieces.” Jennie Kermode, EyeForFilm.com .
