Horrible acting, boring story line, complete waste of time. Levy/Gutierrez should go back to underwear modeling and Spanish soap operas. Leave the acting for real actors. Anpretty face and a hot physique does not constitute acting talent. Do not waste your time watching this film, let alone spend your money buying the DVD.

THE VEIL is another tricky film that appears to be something it's not. It's been renamed as BARBARIAN: RISE OF THE WARRIOR, given an exciting video cover, and made out to be some massive historical adventure with a gritty edge. The real story is quite different: this is a cheapo indie set in some post-apocalyptic war torn landscape riven by warring between rival tribes. There are a few action scenes here and there, but mostly this is made up of mumbling dialogue and trite plotting. William Moseley wonders what happened to his career post-CHRONICLES OF NARNIA and SPARTACUS star Nick E. Tarabay has the briefest of cameos.

I have no idea what the plot of this movie is... there are dream sequences and flashbacks and flash forwards and nothing is explained. The lack of a decent plot is actually quite astounding; really no point in trying to follow along. The dialogue is completely incoherent and confuses you just as much as the swerving plot does.

The only reason this doesn't get a 1, is because the wardrobe department hit this out of the park. The actors had great costumes and looked quite beautiful, they just had nothing else to work off of.
