The better -- but only marginally better -- news is that Banderas is upstaged by several actors who have been given meatier roles (and less time in the makeup trailer), and they give ``Warrior' its occasional sparks of derring-do, humor and heart. Director John McTiernan, he of the action blockbusters ``Die Hard' and ``The Hunt for Red October,' acquits himself with some panache in the film's battle sequences (several scenes seem schooled by Akira Kurosawa's ``Ran,' Mel Gibson's ``Braveheart' and George Miller's ``Road Warrior'), but overall, ``The 13th Warrior' falters on the patchy screenplay by Warren Wisher (``Terminator 2: Judgment Day') and Warren Lewis (``Black Rain'), who can't seem to decide how best to tell their story and which details to leave in or out. Set in a convincingly realized 10th century, ``Warrior' begins awkwardly with an impenetrable, mumbled monologue by Banderas' Arab exile, Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan, a poet sent far from home for vaguely described misbehaviors. With his trusty companion in tow (a throwaway role for the always regal Omar Sharif), Ahmed arrives as an emissary (whose mission appears little more than a plot contrivance) in the land of Norsemen.

These blond- and red-headed Viking-types are governed by Vladimir Kulich's sturdy and necessarily ruthless Buliwyf. (If you think the names are difficult on paper, wait till you hear them in the dark.) A young blond boy appears, a pint-size emissary from King Hrothgar, a Norse royal whose subjects are dying at the hands of a terror too fearsome to be named. Adobe Media Encoder Cs6 Torrent there. An old crone is summoned to prognosticate, and she ordains that 13 warriors must go forth to meet this unnamed enemy and aid the desperate king. It is no surprise that Ahmed pulls the 13th straw, and off he goes with a brawny lot who would have made Leif Ericson proud.

But here is where McTiernan's film runs into the truer horrors of a confused script. It should be noted that the film's early scenes are spoken in a Scandinavian tongue that Sharif's character lumberingly translates through another translator. This plodding linguistic nonsense ends after a silent montage in which Ahmed is observed to be ``listening' to his new mates (eyes, eyes, more flashing eyes), and he masters their language (meaning everyone abruptly breaks into English). As the Norsemen arrive in the decimated kingdom, McTiernan shifts his focus to the story's real action characters -- Kulich's increasingly interesting Buliwyf and the amusing and fearless Herger the Joyous, an American film debut for the appealing Norwegian actor Dennis Storhoi.

Only late in the script is it apparent that Ahmed the poet is to chronicle the tale of the brave Buliwyf, but the film (and Banderas' posture as leading man) suffers from his character's general passivity. His moments of revelation -- as when he realizes the enemy are mere mortals -- are some of the film's most awkward scenes. McTiernan and his writers also introduce a number of plot points that are never developed.

Ahmed sometimes mutters about his Muslim faith, but reserves his only real show of piety for the proverbial muddy foxhole. The accomplished stage actress Diane Venora (who hails from East Hartford) appears too briefly as Queen Weilew and a possible love interest for Buliwyf. A nameless woman provides brief diversion for Ahmed. The king's son, Wigliff, surfaces with a suggestion of evil doings that are somehow resolved by an extended scene of mano-a-mano combat between Herger and a Norse giant. Also hovering over the film like fog in a fiord is the question of who commands the flesh-eating force of nameless menaces who sometimes present themselves as a well choreographed, torch-carrying ``river of fire.'
