  Wouldn't it be incredible if you could control time? If you had the power to turn back time, you would be unstoppable. That is what everyone is after in "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time1," the epic2 action-adventure movie based on the video game with the same name. In the magical lands of sixth century Persia, the forces of good fight evil ones over control of this god-given power.   
        Dastan, played by Jake Gyllenhaal from "Brokeback Mountain," is an orphan3 from the streets who is taken in and made an heir4 by the king after displaying valor5 in battle. Prince Dastan comes across an ancient dagger6 capable of releasing the Sands of Time, a gift from the gods that can reverse time and give its owner the power to rule the world. However, there are dark forces trying to get the dagger. Thus, Prince Dastan joins forces with the mysterious Princess Tamina to protect the extraordinary dagger from falling into the wrong hands. Is all this in the gods' plan for Dastan? Make time to find out with "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" in theaters.



  如果您能掌控時間,那豈不是很不可思議?如果您擁有讓時間倒轉的魔力,那天底下就沒有任何事能阻擋您。在《波斯王子:時之刃》這部根據同名電玩改編的史詩動作冒險鉅片中,眾人都在追尋這樣的力量(編按:僅英文上同名,本部電影的中文名稱並非如電玩般直譯為《波斯王子:時之砂》)。在西元六世紀的波斯這個魔幻國度裡,正義與邪惡雙方的力量都在爭奪著要控制這個天賜的神力。
  由《斷背山》主角傑克•葛倫霍所飾演的達斯坦是一位流落街頭的孤兒,他因為在戰場上所展現出的驍勇善戰而被國王收養,並受封為國王的繼承人。達斯坦王子偶然發現一把古老的匕首能釋放所謂的『時之砂』,這個來自天神的禮物能將時間倒轉,並賜予擁有者操控世界的力量。然而黑暗勢力卻試圖要奪得匕首。因此,達斯坦王子與神秘的塔米娜公主便聯手保護這把非凡的匕首,以免它落入邪惡的一方。達斯坦所遭遇的一切都在天神的計畫之中嗎?抽個空到電影院觀賞《波斯王子:時之刃》來找出答案吧。
