    This film certainly isn't bad and the 2+ hours pass pretty quickly. The problem is that it's directed by a Frenchman. Now, in the hands of an American, the explosions may be bigger but at least the subject matter would be taken a bit more seriously, as this film is frequently hilarious. The battle scenes in particular are so light-hearted there's no real sense of triumph, not helped by the highly creative defences on the enemy castle that make it look like the French are trying to invade Disneyland. Luc Besson should stick to what he's best at: fantasy.

    Good movie about the legendary Jeanne of Arc who lived in France in 1400-century, and was engaged in the war between France and England. There were good acting performances by most of the actors, and especially Dustin Hoffman, who suited very well in his role. Furthermore, the story was told very well.

    I?ve had this movie since 2002 or something, but forgot and thought about it during an episode of Wire in the Blood ? Season 2, where it was an episode which dealt around Jeanne D?Arc. The action sequences in the movie were probably good, when it came in 1999, but not so inspiring today after watching several war movies with good action.

    This amazing epic length tale of Joan of Arc requires patience and concentration. For those of you who like battle sense there are a fair few to enjoy. Historians, I?m sure you?ll find this film facsincating and to top it off an incredible performance from Milla Jovovich.

    Wow, I mean. Just, a totally awesome movie. Complete with action scenes, and I just love the dialogue between Jeanne and Dustin Hoffman. Truly phenomenal.

    I love Milla, she is so great and she looks so wonerable, but yet she is so strong. I think she is great in actionmovies.
