Many will most likely not come across this film or this review as it is from the late 90s and surprisingly flopped at the box office, but it is a must watch if you action, adventure, or historical fiction of any kind. Although this movie is loosely based on the real accounts of a Persian diplomat during the Islamic Golden Age, it molds historical accuracy with fiction perfectly.

The characters are interesting, diverse in their manner, and all look the part. Banderas plays his role very well. The costumes, soundtrack, and filming locations are all great. Although it is not a perfect movie, I still felt I needed to rate it as a 10/10 because this film is loads better than any of the filth released these days. All practical effects, no shite CGI to use as a crutch. Would highly recommend.

I watched this show and thoroughly enjoyed it with no prior knowledge of the games or lore.

I recently played and finished New Vegas and Fallout 4 then followed with rewatching the show.

I had low expectations on the second watch as adaptations usually do not stay true to the lore and disappoint (Rings of Power, Halo, could name more) but I was very wrong. They incorporated numerous easter eggs and the same feel of the games. While they could have done a better job writing the villains to be in the grey area as seen in the games, they still did a fantastic job with the soundtrack, costumes, and mysteriousness.

The actress for Lucy plays her role great and is not written as a mary sue who knows everything (im talking to you Disney) and Walton Goggins gives a memorable performance as the Ghoul.

The show ends on a great cliffhanger on what is in store for season 2 and also leaves enough questions in every plot line to leave the viewer wanting more. Looking forward to whats in store!
