Jaime and Dan discuss 2005's Kingdom of Heaven, arguably one of Ridley Scott's last great films (in our humble opinion). Sharing some traits with Lawrence of Arabia's cinematography and setting, and with Blade Runner in terms of budget, production, and editing issues, this director's cut is another good example of how superior a longer cut of a film can be.
Beautifully made, with battles of epic proportion and a phenomenal job by all involved. Religion, the Holy Land, betrayal, and the weight of morality are at the forefront in this film, as different characters struggle with difficult decisions in a difficult land.
