KINGDOM OF HEAVEN the movie was once again featured in the movie channel on TV. It was an epic battle between good and evil. Starring Orlando Bloom as Balian.
Story: Balian and his father were on epic journey to Jerusalem for a pilgrimage. However, his father died but he continued the pilgrim. The storm had them battled the high waves, then shipwreck happened and only Balian survived. He encountered a sheik and a Moslem servant. The sheik wants his horse but Balian didn't allowed him to take his horse and they fought. Balian won. He was able to reach Jerusalem, met the King (who was sick of leprosy) and also met his beautiful sister Sybila.
Balian's journey and pilgrim to the footsteps up to the cavalry, to the uphill of Golgotta where Jesus was crucified, has been fulfilled but due to on-going pilgrimage of thousands to more than hundred thousands of people wanting to be in Jerusalem had him stuck to the area that the King of Jerusalem offered him something he cannot turn down which Siberius had thought provoking.
It seems the pilgrimage has turned into invasion with hundred thousands of eager and enthusiastic mass of humans led by Salajudin (Egyptian) who led this massive forceful entry to Jerusalem which turned into bloody rage war. Balian's and the non-warrior entities in Jerusalem had them outnumbered. Thousands had died on both sides but the Salajudin's massive army (hundred thousands) had more weapons and they are warriors. Balian surrendered Jerusalem which the people in Jerusalem praised him for that. They can live. But they have to get out. Salajudin honored his promise that he will spare their lives.
They could have defeated Salajudin and his massive army if only Siberius and his knights and the Roman Empire had helped and cooperated. However, Siberius don't want to be a part of that war.
Before the movie ends... another group of pilgrimage came. It was led by the King of United Kingdom.
