Review of Centurion (2010) by Jack G — 22 Nov 2012
Probably a "better" movie than Doomsday, though not as fun, and certainly nowhere near the high quality of The Descent, which may probably be the only masterpiece he's got in director Neil Marshall. Still, it's some bloody good action for the most part, and Olga Kurylenko by proxy of a character literally tongue-less doesn't have the kind of poor acting she had in Quantum of Solace. Also, Michael Fassbender is always made of win. As is lots of gore and violence, sans the CG blood.
All this said - after seeing Marshall direct the episode of Game of Thrones in season 2, where the battle happens at the Lannister castle... I forgive this film some of its problems as it served as a 'trial' run for Marshall's best direction yet.
