Review of The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc (1999) by Kristine H — 17 Jul 2007
Pro: This movie is so visually stunning it takes your breath at times. Luc Besson can always be counted on for this kind of eye candy.
Cons: Historically this movie is ...well... not historic. The accuracy was disappointing. Considering that this will be used as factual reference for anyone (namely the younger generations), that isn't exposed to this kind of history makes it kinda tragic. So many will assume that St Joan was motivated by revenge - when this is just simply not the case.
