Attila is a 2013 action-adventure film that presents the epic story of the infamous conqueror Attila, also known as "The Scourge of God." The movie follows Attila (Cheick Kongo), a legendary warrior of the Huns, who leads his army of blood-thirsty soldiers on a mission to conquer and lay siege to the Roman Empire. As the Huns' grip on the Roman Empire grows stronger, the Roman Emperor Valentinian (Chris Conrad) orders his loyal general, Aetius, to defend the empire from Attila's death batallion. However, Aetius must also confront his personal demons, including a complicated romance with the emperor's daughter, Ildico (Mikayla Soo-ni Campbell), that makes his mission all the more daunting.

Attila and his army, though outnumbered, are ferocious fighters, and as they continue both to pillage and form alliances with different peoples along the way, they strike fear into the hearts of their enemies. Meanwhile, Valentinian's generals fail to hold back Attila's steady advance. Attila's cunning tactics prove devastating to the Roman defenses, and soon his armies lay siege to Rome itself.

Amid the chaos of the battle, Attila is confronted by the voice of his greatest foe, a mystic who warns him of being cursed to forever lose his child: "When your arrogance feeds your rage and drives your hunger for power, you will not see that you will lose what is most dear to you." This prophecy haunts Attila throughout the film.

In his quest for power, Attila also faces an internal battle for leadership of the Huns. He eventually triumphs over his rival brother, making him even more of a force to be reckoned with.

As Valentinian's forces make a final stand against the Huns, Attila must decide between his ruthless desire for power and the possibility of a new path with Ildico, which would mean giving up his ambitions of conquering Rome. Through it all, Attila emerges as a formidable and complex leader whose ambition to dominate the world is exceeded only by his own turmoil.

Attila delivers a captivating tale of power, love, loyalty, and revenge, set against the stunning backdrop of ancient Europe. Director and writer Emanuel Isham and his team have crafted a visual feast with breathtaking landscapes, vivid action sequences, and a degree of historical authenticity that makes the movie feel like a true historical epic. The cast is equally impressive, with Cheick Kongo delivering a standout performance as Attila, embodying the character's ferocity, charisma, and inner conflict with equal measure.

Overall, Attila is a film that delivers on its promise of excitement and spectacle, while also offering a compelling portrayal of one of history's most formidable conquerors. It's an epic adventure that fans of historical drama and action movies will enjoy.

Attila is a 2013 action movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 26 minutes. It has received poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 2.1.
