No idea how Stanley Tucci ended up in this soapy spanish ego puff-piece, but I truly feel sorry for him.
The characters are as flat as the medieval earth and the production looks about as cheap as a 1980s mexican telenovela.
Tucci is surrounded by also-rans who I didn't know before, and wish I hadn't, after.
That said, there's a generous portion of national glory, honor, pride, and the story seems to take itself too seriously at pretty much every turn.
If that's what you're into, perhaps you'll have a great time. Otherwise watching this is a complete waste of electricity.
