Why focus the movie on the most useless (spoilers)


incompetent, bland "hero" ever who does absolutely nothing throughout (he doesn't even have a quest for the most part of the movie) and gets repeatedly jumped by the villains until even the real hero can't manage to save his dumb ass anymore.

Doesn't matter if the main character was "bland"... holy crap he got decapitated and mutilated at the end. That was the most WTF moment ever for me.

I didn't like the guy and he was a grade A wuss throughout, but still... dang... that was just very unsettling. Thankfully Mace was 110% badass throughout and reminded me of Caveman-era Batman from Fire & Ice.
