Dastan (Jake Gyllenhaal ), the Prince of Persia, suddenly finds himself at odds with the kingdom — brothers Garsiv (Toby Kebbell) and Tus (Richard Coyle), and uncle Nizam (Ben Kingsley) — after he is blamed for the murder of King Sharaman (Ronald Pickup).

Of course everyone and their mother want the dagger for their own purposes, including the pretty Princess Tamina (Gemma Arterton), from whose hands it was stolen.

The grand desertscapes and mountainscapes travelled by Dastan and his haughty “partner” Tamina are a visual delight.
