Prince of Persia Movie Trailer is Action-Packed

It's... actually looking pretty good.

The Prince of Persia was a classic platforming game that's been revitalized in modern PC and console gaming. It was the Sands of Time that modernized the gameplay and the spawned a number of sequels. Now the Sands of Time is being made into a blockbuster summer 'event movie' thanks to producer Jerry Bruckheimer.

While many of us are still skeptical of a movie based off of a video game (and Jake Gyllenhaal, of all people, playing the prince), there's no denying that the movie will bring big set pieces and special effects. After all, if the production company behind this movie turned a Disney theme park ride into an entertaining trilogy, there's hope yet.
