my parents actually saw it...my mom said it was 'pretty good but too violent' and my dad said he 'liked it, some really great action scenes'

It was effing amazing!!!111
I saw it opening night took me awhile to convince them my ID was real but they let me and I covered for a bunch of my friends too...anyway it was amazing it was like...a two hour cinematical trailer...every part of the movie sent shivers up my spine, it made the hairs stand on the back of my neck like when i saw the World of warcraft intro cinematics!

But I'm not too huge on brainless over-the-top action... Soo...
Maybe I'll see it eventually...

Here's a clip of one of the action sequences, likely to put hair on your chest while watching.

Also, don't assume that just because the movie features some incredible violence and action that it completely lacks any form of intelligence. There's a well written and real entertaining story to be seen.

At no point in time did I find the movie to be dumb.

At one point there were so many horses. And I was looking over at my friend Kyle and I was like "OMG KYLE! THERE ARE SO MANY HORSES!"

"WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION?!"

No I didn't see Sin City or play God of War, so I still have no idea how violent. Worse than... LotR, Troy, Gladiator etc?
