Prince Valiant (1997 film)

Prince Valiant is a 1997 IrishBritish independent sword and sorcery film directed by Anthony Hickox and starring Stephen Moyer, Katherine Heigl, Thomas Kretschmann, Edward Fox and Ron Perlman. It is based on the longrunning Prince Valiant comic strip of Hal Foster, some panels of which were used in the movie.

Empire gave Prince Valiant two stars out of five and stated a promising, swashbuckly romp is entirely scuppered by some indiscriminate broadsword editing, thereby removing any fun the name cast might have had, and leaving a poorly dubbed, effectslacking film disappointingly limp. The editor took his name off after the German producers fired the director and recut picture taking out two main story lines and most of the humor.
