My father and i love this movie sooo much, such great acting and the thing that i like about it most is how they portray Saladin. He's portrayed as a respectful, honest and intelligent leader. I know its wrong, but they're a stereotype for muslims in movies sometimes, portraying them as mindless zealots that only think about killing "heretics". Saladin is wise and a great leader and i applaud Ridley Scott for making him that way.
The directors cut is one of my favorite "epic" movies. The studio should have had released that version in theatres instead of the cut up mess they ended up with. Love the trailer music. Still haven't found out the name of the song though.
I can understand why some people didn't like the movie (for certain aspects), but this is without a doubt one of the best epics of all time. Ridley Scott is the master at making an epic and this is definitely proof of that; great actors, performances, visuals, cinematography, and a hauntingly beautiful score take this film through a journey of religion, sacrifice, and love that only Ridley could accomplish and i have to agree with 'majesticmaniac' with it beating both Troy and Alexander together
I remember watching the Theatrical Version and I liked it but had been expecting more. But when I watched the Director's Cut I fell in love with it. It felt like I hadn't seen the movie before.
@amgaaaad did younsaw or understood the movie? Saladin (sorry can t write his name in thre arabic way) was a man who believed in chevallery and that chosed to let the crusaders leave Jerusalem and rescued many thousand warriors and civilsts and the holy city isvproven history
this movie is seriously historically inaccurate :( ... the history of the muslims and salah el deen should not be represented in anyway bad .coz it's an epic history indeed .
@lukeyboymufc1990 are u serious? The title has the word "heaven" in it, the plot concerns both Christians and Muslims who worship "god". Of course the word is going to pop up constantly. That's like complaining the word "wasted" or "stoned" was said too much in a movie like Harold and Kumar.
Easily one of the best war epics of the last decade. Beats both Troy and Alexander ten folds in brain and brawn. Had great performances, specially by Edward norton who gave a phenomenal act considering he had such a great handicap as an actor. No face. and boy did that Salladdin dude have some personality.. I guess the problem with this movie was it was based on religion, and essentially when it comes to religion, every person on this planet is biased. Whether they r religious themselves or not
@majesticmaniac I totally agree with you how great this story is.
But I don't think it is a problem that the movie is based on religion, (although is will have affected box office sales). Not everybody is biased, you don't have to pick a side. Both the muslims and christians have honorable and power-hungry characters.
While the story line is about religion and christians vs muslims, I think the movie is really about good vs evil and doing the right thing. "Holiness is in right actions",
@majesticmaniac Watched this movie for the 3rd time yesterday.I absolutely love this movie I don't see why it got such bad reviews on rotten tomatoes.The story seems so relevant because of the blood shed around that part of the world even today.It hits religion and its absurdities hard.
Although I had some problems with how the main character being a blacksmith was more knowledgeable about military strategy than anyone on the christian side
@NenoBrown24 I kinda got thrown off about the Orlando knowing military tactics too. But at the beginning he says that he built war machines and went to war with the French. I think that is where he got his military experiences.
The thing that makes Ridley Scott so good is the cinematography and the way he can create epic scales. Kingdom of Heaven is my favorite film. Lots of people say it isn't as good as Gladiator, but IMO, its music and atmosphere are just much grander.
This movie is for true connoisseurs of cinema art back neophytes and lacking in intellect the best work of Rydley Scoot a piece of pure art collection.
the directors cut of this film, is for lack of a better word, theatrical. it is long, but keeps you gripped. the soundtrack is phenomenal and the characters are developed and deep and the film is surprisingly unbiased. the only way to enjoy the film is watching the directors cut.
I saw the Director's Cut version first then the Theatrical version, and I think the extended version is a billion times better than the one they showed in theater. The ridiculous effort of trying to cut the film into a regular two hour mindless commercial action film has killed a true masterpiece.
This is one of the best movie trailers I've ever seen. There's no ridiculous voice-over, it's not filled with all the good one-liners, and the entire story isn't summed up for you in two and half minutes like most trailers do these days. Instead, we see glimpses of great action scene and a sprinkling of dialogue that gives us the gist of what the movie is about: the Crusades, and, ultimately, religion.
If you haven't seen this yet, be sure to watch the Director's Cut.
@GileadsFinest THIS FILM IS GREAT!...BUT THE VOICE OVER ISENT A BAD TOOL!!...IN FACT SOME OF THE BEST NARRATED FILMS ARE VOICE OVER LIKE "APOCALYPSE NOW", "THE TIN RED LINE", "PLATOON", "TAXI DRIVER", "GOODFELLAS", "THE AGE O INNOCENCE" (THESE LAST 3 ARE FROM MARTIN SCORSESE)....IN FACT SCORSESE IS MAYBE THE BEST DIRECTOR WHO CAN USE THE VOICE OVER...BUT I DONT LIKE THE VOICE OVER IN "GANGS OF NEW YORK" FROM MARTY,I FOUND IT UNNECESARY!
@GileadsFinest hollywoods version of religion is self-serving and aggressive. it attacks their livelihood, so their take on any major religious battle (if it involves christianity) is usually a farce.
this movie may be well made - but actors playing major religious figures? Please. think about who writes this stuff and why.
@mustafaalmalkey this is only a rumour with no historical baces. Its a common thing of our days to accuse great men for homosexuality like its a crime instead of admiting their contribution to the world
You mention in the description that you've seen only the theatrical cut which I agree sucks. The director's cut of this film makes it one of Scott's finest films. My advice - watch it. It's a shame what how the studios butchered this film.
@chixie91 I always thought (in my youth before learning history) Richard the "lionheart" meant he was a good person, courageous, kind, had a good-heart. Then I learned he slaughtered muslims right?
@chixie91 Did you see the same film as I did? What I love about this movie is that they DON'T portray Saladin and his army as evil but as a side of a horrible conflict. We even see that Saladin was provoked into a war he didn't want.
@chixie91 Really? If you discount the views of the Christian zealots who wanted nothing more than power (such as Reynald and Guy), Saladin is probably the most respected person in the movie. Besides the Hospitaler, he's the most likeable as well.
This trailer was different than most others... I've seen many trailers, but I think this managed to communicate the feeling of the movie to us without revealing too much about the plot or giving away the best one-liners. Made me curious, and that's a good thing...
A movie based on one of the most epic eras of mankind. A world where the middle east meets west. A world where two religions meet. A city, a land, sacred, for thousands of years.
All of the hearts of men were on the city of Jerusalem. The city of our Lord. The future, ever lasting, kingdom of heaven, on earth.
@Izziana Is that the hasishasins you mean? Like that's where the word assassin comes from. Iayalars were frontline hash head nutcases for the Ottomans lol!
Dude you need to watch the extended cut it's outstanding. Just improves the film in so many ways especially in characterisation, making individual motives clearer and filling in some plot holes. Even developing on themes which the theatrical version was unable to do due to time constraints. I think this film was far too impressive for theatrical release they don't have enough time to fully develop the extensive characters, epic plot and far reaching themes.
Sun Tzu, greatest general of all time. Modern generals who borrow wisdom from him end up winning. The Chinese were the masters of war craft, that is why the Arabs could never conquer them and till this day are scared to fuck with them. The only reason that the Muslims survives the Mongol invasion is because Genghis Khan died suddenly, and his successors fought among themselves, otherwise Buddhism would be the religion of the middle east. At least we wouldn't have Islamic terrorism.
yes u "won" the crusades but guess what christians won the reconquista, the battle for india amd the fight against the ottomans. and to this day US troops are beating the crap out of fudemnetalists like u right now in afganistan.
US casulties- 1500
muslim casulties- 1,000,000+
there's a crusade happening right now and Christians are winning it. -.-
by the way im athiest and u fundamentalists made me see the bible for what it was a brainwashing tool to turn people like u intohate filed jihadists
@DavidBendele our cause for the defense of our land, your cause is occupation, its not something to be proud of when you kill over 1000000 people. second Jihad means struggle, and a jihadist can be anyone, anyone who struggles and has the will to do what he does for the sake of God is jihad, since I'm studying abroad I consider it jihad...... learn your facts.
@DavidBendele your leader has conned your people in a war where you will never win you will lose like Russia did you have won minor fights in da end you will retreat back home and leave us middle eas will become great look what is happening now open your eyes
@DavidBendele your leader has conned your people in a war where you will never win you will lose like Russia did you have won minor fights in da end you will retreat back home and leave us middle eas will become great look what is happening now open your eyes
@GamerElite1000 we won ALLAHU AKBAR :) i wish what they say will be true about planet X so we can go back to the dark ages thats where the muslims are unbeatable. The general of the muslims in this movie is not the best known the muslims ever had. One briljant general who defeated also the roman empire and the persians is non the less than Khaled ibn al walied but this one gets props to :).
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid ahahahahahaha!!!! your stupid. first off that "general" one of the greatest leaders of all time Salahudin al ayyub, was much better than Khaled ibn al walied, who defeated an incredibly weakened persian, and byzantine, yes Byzantine not roman army you stupid towel head,because the two empire had been fighting for 100's of yearsand had beat each other senseless. ur "empire" was just the result of scavenging weak territories from two weak empires. lol
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid it tokk u 800 years to destroy the byzantine empire because of your worhtless camel riding peasants were slaughtered every time they sieged constntinople. ever heard of the reconquista?? thats were the spanish mercilessly slaughtered ur brethren until there were none left in spain. ya muslims were definantly unbeatable. , hows osama doin' :) oh ya last time i checked he got his head blown off by a US navy seal. ur a pathetic ignorant piece of crap.
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid You guys never seem to brag about your attempts at invading and trying to conquer China during the dark ages. I guess talking about how entire Muslim armies would never return from battle with the Chinese (and later Mongolians) is not something to brag about. Saladin, brilliant general??? My ass. Sun Tzu, Guan Yu, Genghis Khan, now those are great generals. Oh..... lest we forget, Norman Scharzkopf and David Patraeus.
@808SoulJahxXx Am sorry but i don't believe in Lies. Do me a favor and search up "Khaled Ibn al walied" on wikipedia and get the privileg to know the best General ever. Not one battle lost and and destroyed the Roman and Persian empire. Thats like an Army destorying the USA at this time cause Romans were the supper powers at that time and Khalied wiped them out of the map ;)
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid I don't believe in lies either. The Roman Empire (Byzantines) had numbers on their side, but they were a shadow of their former selves. He could never have beaten the legions of Augustus or even Constantine for that matter. By this time, the empire had shrunk to 1/3 of its size, with barbarians in full control of the city of Rome itself. As for the Persians, they were nowhere close to their former glory as when Darius ruled. Again, nothing to brag about.
@808SoulJahxXx 40.000 muslims under Command of Khalied owned 200.000 Romans yup outnumbered alright *Sarcasm. To me khaled is the best commander Not one Battle lost just show that he was the best.
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid So what, an 8 man squad of Navy SEALS can wipe out a million boy scouts, it's still nothing to brag about. For Christ's sake, the Visigoths handed the Romans their asses around the same time. Defeating the Roman Empire at this point in history is NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT!!! The Roman Empire was a superpower in name only by this time. If they couldn't even beat barbarian peasants with pitchforks, then a professional army defeating them is not very impressive!
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid I don't care if he was gay or not. He was the greatest commander ever lived. That's proof from anicent and modern historians. Teached by Aristoteles himself, raised by Philip the second of macedonia, to become a king and mighty warrior. The legend tells that he was a son o Zeus himself. Conquered the mighty Persian empire, egypt and even parts of northern India. That's greatness.
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid Thats a Pretty low thing to say. As it is typically used as a Battle Cry. That Makes you a Warmongerer, Or a racist, either that or have no regard for love and other poeple, But Violence and hatred. Making you unworthy of your religion, or any others. TO gloat of a battle victory is a fools game, as there will be a day when somebody comes and turns it all around.
Does anyone know what the accoustic song is on the start of the trailer? Or the rock song at the end? If you know PLLZZZZZ Let me know, i have been looking for them for ages.
i watched this before, and i didn't enjoy it... but i want to rewatch it again because i want to give it a second chance, and i love the whole crusaders history, even if it makes christians look bad (I'm christian).... but still it's a really interesting history
Do you know how Islam first came to be? Don't like Islam's own version? Here's the one we've learned in History.
Mohammed the Prophet was a trader. Like many Arabian traders, he went to the Byzantine Empire. There he found a magnificent, unified Empire, with a righteous Emperor. Then the Prophet, a god man, returned to Arabia and saw how bad it was. Women and children abused, many gods worshipped, Arabian tribes divided. He was shocked and took over the Orthodox goodness with Arabian tradition.
@Athlon2010 Yeah, I mean... Torturing was a rarity in Constantinople, crucifixion was forbidden, slavery was banned,... Justinianus the Great made even wiser laws. And the Hagia Sofia (obviously Aya Sofia, 'the Church of Holy Wisdom') was constructed by Byzantines, during Justinianus' reign.
Yes, Byzantine Greece was not the same barbaric with the rest of Europe. It was the cradle of civilization. Did you know that Constantinople city was the largest city in whole Europe ?
@Athlon2010 I can't say it's a surprise to me. But to say I really knew... I keep getting it mixed up with Rome, the ancient 'world capital'. And in fact, because of the Byzantines, the Russians are Christian nowadays. There was a civil war and the Emperor needed help. So he came to Prince Vladimir of Kiev, asking for his help. Vladimir accepted, but in exchange he wanted to marry the Emperor's sister. His Majesty agreed, but then the Russians were to be Christianized.
@Athlon2010 So, Vladimir sent a fleet with fine soldiers, the Russian reinforcements defeated the Byzantines' enemies and the Prince was baptized, followed by a lot of his conpatriots. Vladimir seemed to have changed completely. Before he had at least 4 spouses and 800 concubines. His whole harem was removed from court, he became godfather to a lot of children to be baptized and founded numerous churches and monasteries. Today, he's being honoured as Saint Vladimir of Kiev.

@HULLOHULLO15 really? thats your conclusion? I dont think it depicted any faith as being evil in the entire film. Get a life and get out of the little nest you live in
The Jews were doing alright under Muslim rule at this time. Saladin and most other Muslim rulers allowed Jews to worship freely and conduct business like any other citizen. But typically when the Crusaders came in they expelled or killed Jews. Pope Innocent III was particularly harsh on the Jews. STILL THINK IT DEPICTS ISLAM AS WAR AND VIOLENCE?
@athiest97 I have a degree in Islamic studies from the University of Oxford, so I am more than qualified to competently argue that Islam is a vulgar, patriarchal, intolerant, cancer-like disease; Islamic governments should be taken out of power: they are oppressive in almost every way possible to human imagination.
@HULLOHULLO15 I highly doubt your degree if you assume islam to be a cancer like disease. Thats the worst answer i can get from an islamic scholar and the best answer from an islamaphobe. But your degree into some work here and look at the origins of islam which was a Unitarian force that helped arabia out of war and injustice. Uniting the people of the peninsula under one community. How strong is that!
@HULLOHULLO15 Islam is not understand taken degree of any University, it is region of peace if you are not belive see the country of USA . In USA Faster growing region is Islam . you know why ? then find you why ?

You mention in the description that you've seen only the theatrical cut which I agree sucks. The director's cut of this film makes it one of Scott's finest films. My advice - watch it. It's a shame what how the studios butchered this film.

@chixie91 Did you see the same film as I did? What I love about this movie is that they DON'T portray Saladin and his army as evil but as a side of a horrible conflict. We even see that Saladin was provoked into a war he didn't want.
bobivd6688 5 months ago
@chixie91 Really? If you discount the views of the Christian zealots who wanted nothing more than power (such as Reynald and Guy), Saladin is probably the most respected person in the movie. Besides the Hospitaler, he's the most likeable as well.

This trailer was different than most others... I've seen many trailers, but I think this managed to communicate the feeling of the movie to us without revealing too much about the plot or giving away the best one-liners. Made me curious, and that's a good thing...

A movie based on one of the most epic eras of mankind. A world where the middle east meets west. A world where two religions meet. A city, a land, sacred, for thousands of years.
All of the hearts of men were on the city of Jerusalem. The city of our Lord. The future, ever lasting, kingdom of heaven, on earth.
Amen.

Dude you need to watch the extended cut it's outstanding. Just improves the film in so many ways especially in characterisation, making individual motives clearer and filling in some plot holes. Even developing on themes which the theatrical version was unable to do due to time constraints. I think this film was far too impressive for theatrical release they don't have enough time to fully develop the extensive characters, epic plot and far reaching themes.

Sun Tzu, greatest general of all time. Modern generals who borrow wisdom from him end up winning. The Chinese were the masters of war craft, that is why the Arabs could never conquer them and till this day are scared to fuck with them. The only reason that the Muslims survives the Mongol invasion is because Genghis Khan died suddenly, and his successors fought among themselves, otherwise Buddhism would be the religion of the middle east. At least we wouldn't have Islamic terrorism.

The general of the muslims in this movie is not the best known the muslims ever had. One briljant general who defeated also the roman empire and the persians is non the less than Khaled ibn al walied but this one gets props to :).

@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid ahahahahahaha!!!! your stupid. first off that "general" one of the greatest leaders of all time Salahudin al ayyub, was much better than Khaled ibn al walied, who defeated an incredibly weakened persian, and byzantine, yes Byzantine not roman army you stupid towel head,because the two empire had been fighting for 100's of yearsand had beat each other senseless. ur "empire" was just the result of scavenging weak territories from two weak empires. lol

@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid You guys never seem to brag about your attempts at invading and trying to conquer China during the dark ages. I guess talking about how entire Muslim armies would never return from battle with the Chinese (and later Mongolians) is not something to brag about. Saladin, brilliant general??? My ass. Sun Tzu, Guan Yu, Genghis Khan, now those are great generals. Oh..... lest we forget, Norman Scharzkopf and David Patraeus.
808SoulJahxXx 7 months ago
@808SoulJahxXx Am sorry but i don't believe in Lies. Do me a favor and search up "Khaled Ibn al walied" on wikipedia and get the privileg to know the best General ever. Not one battle lost and and destroyed the Roman and Persian empire. Thats like an Army destorying the USA at this time cause Romans were the supper powers at that time and Khalied wiped them out of the map ;)
KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid 7 months ago
@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid I don't believe in lies either. The Roman Empire (Byzantines) had numbers on their side, but they were a shadow of their former selves. He could never have beaten the legions of Augustus or even Constantine for that matter. By this time, the empire had shrunk to 1/3 of its size, with barbarians in full control of the city of Rome itself. As for the Persians, they were nowhere close to their former glory as when Darius ruled. Again, nothing to brag about.
808SoulJahxXx 7 months ago
@808SoulJahxXx 40.000 muslims under Command of Khalied owned 200.000 Romans yup outnumbered alright *Sarcasm. To me khaled is the best commander Not one Battle lost just show that he was the best.

@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid So what, an 8 man squad of Navy SEALS can wipe out a million boy scouts, it's still nothing to brag about. For Christ's sake, the Visigoths handed the Romans their asses around the same time. Defeating the Roman Empire at this point in history is NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT!!! The Roman Empire was a superpower in name only by this time. If they couldn't even beat barbarian peasants with pitchforks, then a professional army defeating them is not very impressive!

Teached by Aristoteles himself, raised by Philip the second of macedonia, to become a king and mighty warrior. The legend tells that he was a son o Zeus himself. Conquered the mighty Persian empire, egypt and even parts of northern India. That's greatness.

Do you know how Islam first came to be? Don't like Islam's own version? Here's the one we've learned in History.
Mohammed the Prophet was a trader. Like many Arabian traders, he went to the Byzantine Empire. There he found a magnificent, unified Empire, with a righteous Emperor. Then the Prophet, a god man, returned to Arabia and saw how bad it was. Women and children abused, many gods worshipped, Arabian tribes divided. He was shocked and took over the Orthodox goodness with Arabian tradition.

@Athlon2010 Yeah, I mean... Torturing was a rarity in Constantinople, crucifixion was forbidden, slavery was banned,... Justinianus the Great made even wiser laws. And the Hagia Sofia (obviously Aya Sofia, 'the Church of Holy Wisdom') was constructed by Byzantines, during Justinianus' reign.

Yes, Byzantine Greece was not the same barbaric with the rest of Europe. It was the cradle of civilization. Did you know that Constantinople city was the largest city in whole Europe ?
Athlon2010 8 months ago
@Athlon2010 I can't say it's a surprise to me. But to say I really knew... I keep getting it mixed up with Rome, the ancient 'world capital'. And in fact, because of the Byzantines, the Russians are Christian nowadays. There was a civil war and the Emperor needed help. So he came to Prince Vladimir of Kiev, asking for his help. Vladimir accepted, but in exchange he wanted to marry the Emperor's sister. His Majesty agreed, but then the Russians were to be Christianized.
JustFlemishMe 8 months ago
@Athlon2010 So, Vladimir sent a fleet with fine soldiers, the Russian reinforcements defeated the Byzantines' enemies and the Prince was baptized, followed by a lot of his conpatriots. Vladimir seemed to have changed completely. Before he had at least 4 spouses and 800 concubines. His whole harem was removed from court, he became godfather to a lot of children to be baptized and founded numerous churches and monasteries. Today, he's being honoured as Saint Vladimir of Kiev.

The Jews were doing alright under Muslim rule at this time. Saladin and most other Muslim rulers allowed Jews to worship freely and conduct business like any other citizen. But typically when the Crusaders came in they expelled or killed Jews. Pope Innocent III was particularly harsh on the Jews. STILL THINK IT DEPICTS ISLAM AS WAR AND VIOLENCE?
athiest97 9 months ago
@athiest97 I have a degree in Islamic studies from the University of Oxford, so I am more than qualified to competently argue that Islam is a vulgar, patriarchal, intolerant, cancer-like disease; Islamic governments should be taken out of power: they are oppressive in almost every way possible to human imagination.
HULLOHULLO15 9 months ago
@HULLOHULLO15 I highly doubt your degree if you assume islam to be a cancer like disease. Thats the worst answer i can get from an islamic scholar and the best answer from an islamaphobe. But your degree into some work here and look at the origins of islam which was a Unitarian force that helped arabia out of war and injustice. Uniting the people of the peninsula under one community. How strong is that!
