Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Video Game Review: ‘Prince of Persia Trilogy HD’ Packages Classic Games

While “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time” with Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton has a blockbuster opportunity to buck the decades-old trend, we’re just subjected to more of the same soul-deadening time drain.
