I had nothing to do on a Sunday and this movie was on TV. So I said, oh great a murder mystery. I always enjoyed them. Even if they weren't so good... But this movie is just terrible. It is an anti-Hitchcock movie, meaning there is absolutely NO suspense. None whatsoever. The director should find himself a different profession. The cuts are so quick and I do mean so quick that the movie just blows past. Some people get killed, bam, next scene, main guy finds something important out, bam, new scene. No suspense. And in this type of movie the suspense is everything. You have to be there with the protagonist finding clues and being on the edge of your seat when something goes wrong. Here NOTHING.
And the acting... It's like the year 2000 only everyone is in medieval clothes. The only medieval thing in the movie is the costumes and the scenery. But i could have lived with bad acting. But the cuts... Why not let a scene settle in? WHY?
