It's fun to think how Hollywood can start new traditions in countries far away. In Sweden there are a couple of things that must be broadcasted in the Xmas and New Year holidays...on Xmas Eve it's cartoon with Donald Duck & Co at 3 PM....(there was a great anger some years ago when there was rumor going on saying that the state-television wouldn't broadcast the show because it had been bought by an other commercial-station...luckily they got it back and broadcasted it thus saving that tradition). The second tradition from Hollywood is the broadcasting of this version of Ivanhoe. Always at 3 PM on New Years Day....
The movie is quite good. The actors does well performances and it follows the plot of the book good. But as in many mainstream-medieval-Hollywood-heroic-movies it romanticize the whole era a bit to much, but that is easily looked over. Therefore I feel I can strongly recommend this movie.
