[Available Dec. 6 on DVD and Blu-ray™.] After the death of the Holy Roman emperor Charles IV in 1402 and weak Czech King Wenceslas IV (Karel Roden) competes with his half-brother Hungarian King Sigismund (Matthew Goode) to stay on the throne and power-hungry nobleman Henry III of Rosenberg (Til Schweiger) is Hell bent on expanding his domain, claiming the throne for himself, and controlling the Roman Catholic Church in Petr Jákl's bleak, factually inspired, gritty, overly complicated, action-packed, well-acted, violent, star-studded (Roland Møller, William Moseley, and Kevin Bernhardt), 126-minute historical film dominated by striking cinematography but muffled dialogue, stoic Bohemian Hussite military commander and mercenary Jan Žižka (Ben Foster) kidnaps Rosenberg's spirited fiancée Lady Katherine (Sophie Lowe) on the advice of Lord Boreš (Michael Caine) and while falling in love with her she becomes a political pawn in the battle for power and peace.
