I remember those days when I used to be a big fan of 'Prince', the computer game which was pretty much among the few good games that one could play on computers which used to have 386x speed processors, 2 MB RAM memory, DOS operating systems, you get the drift. Prince used to be a fun game to play with the protagonist having to climb walls, jump over open abysses, fight the guards using his sword, solve puzzles, etc. While there have been multiple games, both PC and Console versions under the Prince of Persia franchise, I never got around to playing them. However, when news was announced that a movie was being made based on this franchise, I had made up my mind to catch it given the amount of thrills and excitement the game had given me as a teenager. And the movie does not disappoint.

For anybody who has seen 'Robin Hood - Prince of thieves', the 1991 film starring Kevin Costner and directed by Kevin Reynolds, this particular Ridley Scott adaptation of the popular legend of Robin Hood surely is going to be an eye-opener.
