Jake Gyllenhaal Takes a Stab at Being an Action Hero
It's all about the dagger, see?
In The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Jake Gyllenhaal must team up with a beautiful princess to battle an evil dude who has unleashed the sands of time, and the only way to do it is to use a dagger that can control time.
There's more, but pretty much all anyone cares about is whether a long-locked Jake looks good with his shirt off (he does!) and whether the rousing CG-enhanced adventures look like good fun (not sure!). People yell, things crash, and Jake and his costar bicker and banter before (we imagine) falling in love.
Based on a venerable video game, the trailer makes the film seems a little bit The Mummy, a little bit Raiders of the Lost Ark and a little bit The Bourne Identity, which should be a good thing. Based on this one trailer, though, we aren't convinced.
How about you? Is this something you'd want to see? Sound off, people.
