    What subtitles??

    Mesmerising is the best word to describe this film. From the opening shots to the rolling of the credits I was transfixed. Think Braveheart, meets Last of the Mohicans with a bit of Mad Max and Battle Royale thrown in for seasoning! One of the best films I have seen in a long time but be warned if you are squeamish as there is a lot of blood, but even if you are squeamish this is one movie it is worth getting over it for.
