Frankie Avalon (!) plays a travelling minstrel who tels the tale of a hero who defeats the Moors in an epic battle with the assistance of two saints with flaming swords. His scenes of exposition are just silly to the point of embarassment. There is lots of Spanish mountains and countryside, lots of bad dubbed dialogue, lots of pro-Christian, anti-Muslim stuff, some swordfighting, and a surprisingly lugubrious battle. It is said that the battle was the largest ever filmed or something like that, and there is an impressive shot of the Christian army marching in a cross formation, but somehow it lacks the excitement of battle scenes in "Spartacus" or "El Cid." The aide that is given by the saints seems to undercut the achievements of the people involved.

I am a completist when it comes to medieval movies, yet after seeing this once, I really did not have a desire to see it again.
