It has one thing I have never ever witnessed in a modern movie. The little girl exchanges valuable information with a warrior and he tells her "For this, I will serve you until I am dead, or . . until you have finished your mission". When the warrior talks to Sam Elliot, he simply says "We have a contract". Sam has a role made for him or perhaps he and John Wayne created it with many other cowboy heroes.
Imagine that! Without paper, two people come to an agreement and do what they say without question. This is so seldom done today. When I read the reviews on Netflix, many reviews were mad that it polluted the book. Apparently, the book has many anti-religious and religious portions. These were so subtle I did not notice. There are some battle scenes that show death in what can be considered a religious meaning if you consider the Old Testament "ashes to ashes and dust to dust". I am thinking that I will buy one and run it forward to the menu for any kids.
So, Buy a copy or not?

I guess a BATFE "trial" is a lot like a fantasy movie. I have only seen one AFT agent on youTube.

a DVD Ripper is a fine thing for editing the studio's ad content from your backup copy
Only if you're recording to a double-layer disc. Most of the rippers out there compress the feature to fit it on a single layer disc, resulting in inferior picture quality. They're good for making expendible copies of childrens' movies for the player in their room, since they'll be ruined again and again, but that's about it.

read the darn BOOK. please just read the book. i hate that movie so much. there is no WAY they can sell all three (its part of a trilogy) to kids.
its a pholosophical study of religion. and it gets much darker and much more interesting as it goes.
