Does anyone know any good mythological films with great to excellent action climatic films? Films Like Troy, 300, The Gladiator, Lord of the Rings, Alexander, Kingdom of Heaven, Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, Witch and the Warddrobe; Prince Caspian, Harry Potter, Eragon, and etc...?
Not so sure but I am in love with these kinds of movies and would like to see more of them. I like movies that are mythological... especially fighting ones that involves swords, arrows, bows, magic and etc.
This is probably the reason why I love SRO so much because I can pretend to be one of these characters.
I am looking for new movies... something that came out recently that is was a big hit or something that is coming out soon.
Anyone?

300 isn't myth, that battle actually took place.

Well... I was just describing the movies I was interested in seeing. I am asking other people if there are any films that I might like based on the ones I listed.

If you ask me the movie closely look like sro is Forbidden Kingdom. Ok let's compare:
Jet Li the Monkey King looks like the monkey from sro character.
The Jade Warlord his armor looks like a 7d armor.
The Jade Warlord's weapon looks like a 4d glavie.
The Jade Warlord looks like one of the characters in sro too.
lol that's what I noticed while watching.

Sadly I haven't seen that movie. I watched 21 instead... though I did like the "21" movie.
I think I will go out and see Forbidden Kingdom tomorrow or when it releases on DVD which will not be until around 6 months from now.

But most of the details on the movie are myth. They almost only match the names.
(I'm just saying it isn't exactly "historically accurate", it is an awesome movie).
Edit: Have you seen The Last Samurai? Pretty good movie, in my opinion.

ratings are peoples opinions, if they think its good then they give it a high rating, the fact that you like it dosnt make their opinion wrong. Sure, you can have an opinion but thats no reason to go disregarding theirs.

Kingdom of Heaven perhaps. It isn't too packed with action though.
And spartacus. There is an old version and a newer one I believe. I only watched the old version which is pretty cool.

Already seen...
Does anyone know any new movies that may be released that are the same genre?

Well, the story is lame and kinda cheesy but not enough to break the disc and throw it in a fire. Luckily the environments are beautiful, makeup, clothing, etc. The visuals made it nice to look at for me. The story is a - while the visuals are a + so it balances out.
At least that's how i see it.
I can't remember another movie of that kind right now... or soon to come.

If you're looking for any type of mythological film then you may want to check out the Conan the Barbarian movie series.

Or you could watch Hercules. I'm not sure about the actors coz I don't know them really but it was fine.
