The movie was fairly enjoyable but some aspects of it were a bit dumb in my opinion. The first one being Antonio Banderas being cast as an Arab, WTH? haha but okay, he did a good job playing his role.

The next thing was Antonion Banderas being the 13th Warrior who has to go fight with the Vikings. So the Vikings cant understand his language and he cant understand theirs. So magically he manages to sit with them at a bonfire and learn their entire language in a matter of a few hours. So then everyone speaks English as to make it seem everyone understands each other, it was pretty ridiculous.

The last thing was the end, it builds it up to be some great battle but it barely lasts and despite them having to fight a couple of hundred, they kill like 10 and somehow they won.

Pretty off but it was still enjoyable.
