Prince of Persia

Having never played the video game on which this film was based upon, I still enjoyed the tone and pace of the film overall, though the 3rd act sags a bit, but there is a a good amount of action scenes, and somewhat enjoyable chemistry between Jake Gyllenhaal's and Gemma Atherton's characters, and Alfred Molina steals almost every scene he's in with his line delivery, which produced some good laughs.  So, I was actually surprised as I wasn't all that impressed by the trailers, but, overall, I felt the movie was more entertaining than I was expecting it to be.

I give it 2.75 stars, or a grade of B-.
