    Jake Gyllenhaal has the honor of being The Prince of Persia in the movie "The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time". This movie is based on what is considered to be the best game ever made with the most playable male character ever made, the Prince of Persia. This is no childlike oriented game, is a mature game intended for adults that have an open mind and free spirit. Also, the sequel of the game, "The Prince of Persia:The Warrior Within" introduces the most beautiful female character ever created for a game, Kaileena. I think this movie can bost the career of Jake Gyllenhaal. The producers are Walt Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer who are also the producers of Pirates of the Caribbean.I hope the movie is well written and that Jake Gyllenhaal gives a good performance for the movie to be one of the year's best and a box office smash.
