The Rising Hawk

good and fantastic

really I love this movie this my 5time watching it teach u life love and hate

Film yang bagus!

I don't understand all the hate in here. Sure, the plot isn't the best, and some things (mix of American and British accents, obvious plastic surgery on one female character's face) feel a bit out of place, but you got lots of good action, good costumes (one guy said the costumes are bad, I don't know what he's on about), good landscape shots, and the Mongols have fitting Asian actors (the Khan is played by a Mongolian actor, I didn't check what country the others are from), and actually spea Mongolian, which is a huge authenticity plus. Speaking of which, I noticed a few people in here complaining about no subtitles for the Mongolian parts. I don't know which version they watched, the one I watched had subtitles for every single bit of Mongolian dialogue, of which there is actually quite a bit btw, so I can't imagine watching it without subs. Overall, I think this movie was decent. If I have one other minor complaint, it's that it would be nice if a bit more people survived, but oh well.

I was not expecting much from the reviews and the fact that I had never heard of it before and I was pleasantly surprised. It did have a lot of action and kept a good pace. If I had an option I would rate it at a 7 and a half for being entertaining and for the acting.

Totally unrealistic and predictable. Here come the bodybuilders, next comes the pretty girl, 13th century all perfect teeth, ofcourse, all engaging in cliche all one at a time dialogues accompanied by almost soap opera like camera work and by a standard moodsetting music soundtrack.. Awards and nominations, for the love of me I don't know why.. Perhaps for the nature photography, the landscapes are actually rather impressive. ;)

Why is this rated a 6? It's just horrible. I watched for the ratings and cast but I seem to have overlooked the cries from YouTube commenters. It's as if Russian mobsters funded this as a racket. Did they do the writing too?

The film accurately operates the Carpathian slopes, pristine forests. After each shot, you want to grab a backpack and run for a couple of weeks to the Carpathians, return to Sinevyr again, go up the ridges and go down the meadows. Is this the only plus? Costumes, scenery, music, cast, operator work. Thank you!

They had a lot of good thing going,but it was ruined by horrible shaky camera work, some obvious directing problem, acting issues, at times bad fight scenes( some were good)script issues and so forth. Director and camera people should learn to use the camera for their next flick as it was one of the worst I've seen in many years. With a bit more attention to detail and a bit better cast, it would've rivaled all the Hollywood big production studios. The known actors did a good job,but the rest were less than stellar. Lot's of cliches, as another reviewer said. Questionable stunts. Some reviewers gave it a 10 seem to be "patriotic" and not truthful and the current 7.1 rating is certainly not real,but I can see it settling to 5-6 over time - to what it really deserves. PS. the best actor in this movie was the swordsmith...

This is a decent movie by any metric. My only guess is fans of GOT or LOTR who expect CGI and huge battles... but aside from a few historical inaccuracies (like Vikings) this is a thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining romp into 13th Century Europe and I enjoyed it immensely. Especially the fighting versus the Mongols. Leave pretentions aside and you'll enjoy this from start to finish. Fantastic scenery abounds and a decent plot entertains. Recommended.
