This is an okay adventure for kids, with opulent settings and costumes, but you have to wonder about the behavior of the lepers in the caves below the palace. Unlike their passive relatives in Ben Hur, these lepers are aggressive like we see zombies behave in innumerable horror films. Combat scenes are very fake, as well. And the chief antagonist's comeuppance occurs through a rapid sequence of very forced, but apparently random, consequences of his actions.
