Ironclad Trailer Online

A new trailer for a medieval epic Ironclad is online staring Paul Giamatti as an awesome looking power crazy King John.

The year is 1215. King John (Paul Giamatti) has been forced to sign the Magna Carta, a document that will ensure the freedom of men and form the basis of common law in England. Furious at having been forced to sign it, King John raises a vicious mercenary army and begins a rampage across the country to regain total power. But as the King’s army is on the brink of reaching London and taking back control of the country, one last castle stands between him and inevitable victory: Rochester.

Gathered together by Baron Albany (Brian Cox), a small band of rebel warriors gather inside Rochester intent on holding off King John until reinforcements arrive: a Templar Knight (James Purefoy) whose soul is wracked with guilt over the atrocities he has committed during the crusades and his burgeoning feelings for Isabel (Kate Mara), the beautiful lady of the castle and lonely wife of the aging Reginald de Cornhill (Derek Jacobi); battle-hardened mercenaries such as Beckett (Jason Flemyng), who fight not for God and country, but for money and bloodlust; and young soldiers like Guy (Aneurin Barnard), who’ll taste blood and battle for the first time – and perhaps the last.

I was all interested until they threw in those powerchord electric guitar rock to accent the action or a medieval epic.

If they used the same score of a powerful song like this but used a string section instead of electric guitar powerchords, it would have been far more effective.

That being said, Giamatti does CRAZY so damned well, I still have hope.

Just please don’t let that be the soundtrack.

The City Council is examining a request to open a <b><a href=”http://www.us-louisvuittonhandbagssale.net”>Louis Vuitton Handbags</a></b> and retail shop at 11502 Middlebelt in the Livonia Crossroads shopping center on the southeast corner of Plymouth and Middlebelt roads.The council heard at a study session on Monday from Taylor Bond, president of Children’s Orchard, who wants to open a 7,500-square-foot <b><a href=”http://www.us-louisvuittonhandbagssale.net”>Louis Vuitton Handbags Sale</a></b> store at the site of the former Family Buggy restaurant, which was closed several years ago.

  2. Oh, please not the guitar chords on a period piece. Don’t the trailer editors get that the rock type music just makes it look cheap? Otherwise looks pretty cool!

  3. Fastest way to ruin a period movie for Rodney (insert power cord)

    Listen you have Marc Anthony/Solomon Kane wielding a sword so as a guilty pleasure fan of that crapfest Solomon Kane i have to watch this movie.
