I like this movie as its got just what I want on a rainy weekend afternoon. Some romance, some swashbuckling, a hero, a great villain, some humor oh and Alan Rickman who I have had a crush on since Sense and Sensibility. He is the best part of the film. I just watched it again on a snowy Sunday afternoon and it just hit the spot. Did I mention it has Alan Rickman...

However I like it enough as a story to keep watching. Lots of interesting costumes and backdrops plus the apparatus' that Davinci comes up with are pretty nifty whether any are actually based on some of his inventions. Acting is pretty good if a little over the top at times for our hero. My only critique is the women's costumes. A lot of the dresses looked like the ladies had just got back from a shopping trip to Macy's. Awfully modern for the time period but history it ain't.
