Adopted from the streets of Nasaf by King Sharaman of Persia, young Dastan grows up amongst royalty and quickly earns his place as a mighty warrior and prince. As his brothers Garsiv and Tus plan battle strategies, a spy sends word that the Holy City of Alamut has been supplying weapons to enemies of Persia. Taking matters into his own hands, Tus orders an attack on the sacred city and upon its fall Dastan encounters the beautiful Princess Tamina. When King Sharaman dies under mysterious circumstances shortly after, and Dastan is accused of his murder, he flees with the princess on a harrowing mission to clear his name. Learning from Tamina the true motives behind Alamut's invasion, Dastan must embark on a perilous quest to stop an evil mastermind's plot for ultimate power with a mystical weapon that can control the very fabric of time.

Megan's Movie Review:
I really liked this movie a lot! It had a lot of action to it, and some good fight scenes! At first, I didn't know how Jake Gyllenhaal would do in this kind of a movie, but he turned out to do really good. He was like a little Aladdin with all his cool moves and escaping all the bad guys. There were some parts in the movie that were pretty cheesy. One part for instance was when it was at the end of the movie, and they are fighting the bad guys, Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton stop in the middle and have a smooch! I'm like... okay, is this really the time?! They should not be kissing right now! She kind of bugged me a little in her acting. It almost seemed too dramatic for me. But whatever, the whole storyline was good, and it was very entertaining. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It's definitely one of my new favorites.
