In the laborious cinematic endeavor that is 'Hearts of Valor', one finds themselves ensnared in a tapestry of predictably poignant moments dressed in the garb of high fantasy. The director, Dario Argentoad, attempts an ambitious amalgamation of war-time strife and star-crossed affection, yet the execution is as subtle as a trebuchet laying siege to subtlety. Frank Marlin's portrayal of the thief is as convincing as one could hope, given the derivative nature of his archetypal rogue. Arlene Quail, while a competent assassin in narrative, fails to assassinate the audience's skepticism. The dynamic between the leads is as lukewarm as one would expect from characters birthed from such worn clichés. Brindle Berry-thin's addition provides a whimsical nuance, although it often feels more like a desperate grasp at levity in a plot that takes itself too seriously. The film's PG rating ensures that the combat remains as bloodless as the chemistry between our protagonists. Ultimately, 'Hearts of Valor' is a middling affair that is as forgettable as its tagline, 'In the midst of chaos, love is the greatest rebellion', is trite.
