Saladin the Victorious (1963)

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Boring

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Masterpiece in all the aspects of the word , first of all the production and direction are incredible for a movie of year 1963!! , the reality and the honest in historical facts ( for more about this historical period visit " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saladin " also it is not 100% fair ! ) if you want to know the complete story as happened then watch the movie. the movie is a citation of a period of Crusaders ( the unfair wars which made by west under the name of cross ) exactly it was The Third Crusade: 1189-1192 which led by Frederick Barbarosa, Richard I of England and Philip II of France , and the full details about this third attack is cited in this wonderful movie ( which is made for the sake of truth nothing else " the producer run out from money because such movies have no chance to be international because of anti-Muslims which don't want the modern westerners to know anything about the fact of Islam and Muslims , in other words they want everybody to think that these Muslims are the terrorists and that they are the danger for all the world ,but in fact Arabs and Muslim been victims for selfish of the west all the way

Richard Lionheart's helmet appears to be a re-adapted funnel. That should give you an idea of the production values that went into this film. The characters are flat; the duologue is stale; the battle sequences are unimpressive; the history is twisted beyond recognition. At least three or four of the major characters are entirely made-up, and many of the others were twisted beyond recognition.If you are interested in Arab propaganda from the Nasser period, you may find this film interesting. But it has nothing to offer other viewers besides a terrifically biased version of historical events. You would do better with 2005's "Kingdom of Heaven", which, for all its flaws (and there are many) at least did not make up historical figures for reasons of plot convenience.I have no idea why viewers have rated this film so highly. 8.1? Get real.

It is one of the Greatest movies I have ever Seen all over my life.it clearly show the good relation between Moslems & Crestians & how the Moslems role Jureslam & area around it (muslims & Crestians )fairly & it show How this man was a legend in his method of thinking .It show also his characteristics ;& his friends Moslems & Crestians How all of them love & respect him & how he gain his enemies Respect it show the real Moslems characteristics.& it is the best film for Youssef Chahine the director.he is also Crestian & the producer of the film also is Mrs Asia is Crestian . & she pay all her money on this Film balance . the movie is In color & with translation (English )subtitle. You should see itMahmoud

I decided to write this review after I watched the movie Kingdom of Heaven I watched this movie about 10 times or so, and I'm ready to watch it again really great movie and gathers a lot of best actors in Egyptian cinema the story line is the original story of Salah Eldin and the crusades in Bayt EL-Makdes as documented in History The Movie shows the Human side of the great leader, the manners of Arabs specially in wars.It Showed that although Salah El Din is Richard-Lion Heart's enemy but his principles refused him to accept to betray him and accept what August tried to offer him to retreat his troops and betray Richard Lots and Lots of situations and all lead to same result A real Great Movie
