    Not bad, but not history

    Namejs was a Latvian Duke in the 1200s who fought against the Livonian Order. The movie was interesting and had good action, but is only remotely related to historical events. The invaders in the film used a cast of dozens instead of 14,000 crusaders with war machines. The bad guy "Max" should get more roles as a villain.

    Way better than expected....

    Not just a simple low budget sword movie...very well done. Great photography... The actor who played the villian (Max) gave him very sinister, sneering personality....I felt a lot of animosity toward him right from the start. He played the lying , backstabbing part very well. Rest of cast did great job too.

    Enjoyable enough

    While not a great movie, it was entertaining and fun to watch. At times, it reminded me of vikings, at other times, it was The Princess Bride.

    In many scenes, the acting was over the top.

    Remind me about where I am from

    Good movie! Movies isn't correct history, but it gives a look on freedom fight of my nation's. Finally it takes 700 years and only 100 years ago we can establish our own country and also after we have so much trouble but now we are free and I hope Namey's and another heroes fight makes a sence to get a freedom.

    meh

    Prince Valiant of the Baltic. Nice try but no depth in the acting corps and terrible writing.
