Real love is not getting everything you want. Love is knowing all of a person, not “romance”. Love is not always passionate or sex. - @Wednesday, May 2, 2018 3:18 AM

I have this habit whereas if a movies ending or turn of events bothers me, I take the time to re-imagine how it "should" have gone down. i.e practically making my own happy ending as many times as necessary till I believe it. This move demanded I do that. - @Thursday, June 18, 2015 9:59 PM

I own this movie and in fact watched it last night. Its beautifully told and well chorigraphed the fighting and all. The person playing Isolde is so beautiful! And the man playing Tristan is so handsome. Love it! - @Saturday, June 13, 2015 12:00 PM

I just can't understand from where comes this urge to compare every single love story to the one of Romeo and Juliet. It is unbelievable that they actually included that in the trailer. Yes, it is true that the story of Tristan and Isolde is centuries older than this of R&J and yes they are both tragic love stories, but this is where the similarities come to an end. Here is where I have to say SPOIL ALERT. R&J is about the tragedy of two lovers- love above all. I mean, come on they both kill themselves when they find out that the other one is dead. Their love is all-consuming and at first sight. They choose love before family and in the end are tricked by the ill- fated circumstances. Romeo and Juliet love each other despite the rivalry of their households, which ceases once it has already killed the two lovers. Fate plays a great part in their tragedy. T&I is about love and duty. This is another kind of tragedy. Again there is a rivalry, between two kingdoms, which however is not the hurdle in their love story. In the original story Tristan and Isolde fall in love after drinking a love potion ( in the different stories there are different versions of how exactly they obtain this potion and if it has short-term or temporary effects).In the film it is a little bit altered and the potion part is cut out. Anyway, the point is that they actually have the chance to know one another before they start exchanging love vows. When Isolde lied to Tristan about her real name that was choice. When Tristan didn't told Mark about him and Isolde that was also a choice. Isolde didn't run away, she got married to Mark. In the beginning of her marriage with the king Tristan stayed away from the couple- he chose not to betray the man that has been like a father to him. And finally when he gave up keeping his distance, we could see how much he really loved her. Here we are not talking about the fickle fortune- we are talking about decisions. And the most important decision of all is when Tristan chooses family over love and goes back to help the others, after he had the opportunity to run away with Isolde. In the end their love did save the kingdom. Personally I love both the story of Romeo and Juliet and the one of Tristan and Isolde. But they simply can not be compared, because the main idea behind each of them is quite different. Many people find R&J pretty cheesy, but that is just what the main plotline is- love comes first. Of coarse, one can not neglect the genius and astonishing Shakespearean language! Just wondering how the story of T&I would have looked like if Shakespeare had written a play about it! Unfortunately, we can never know... Meanwhile just enjoy both of the stories, which are simply beautiful and astounding! - @Thursday, May 28, 2015 3:01 PM

Nothing against James Franco but Thomas Brodie Sangster doesn't look like him at all. He is so much more cute :))) Even at the age of 25. - @Sunday, April 19, 2015 12:20 AM

This is a good movie but a GREAT story. It could probably be done again today with a bigger budget, and the kind of quality they apply to Game of Thrones/Russel Crowe movies. - @Friday, March 13, 2015 10:13 PM
