It takes a real savant to crawfish and still masquerade as correct.

Saladin is across the board one of the most respected military leaders in history. He DID defeat the kingdoms army in open battle before the seige and DID allow the Christian defenders leave the city once the city was surrendered. (We slaughtered a lot of people when we took Jerusalem 200 years earlier btw)

The movie does a good job bringing to life the DOCUMENTED power struggles between rival nobilities and knights organizations that crippled the Kingdom.

Just admit you're a boomer/zoomer that shot off a bullshite, shallow, ignorant opinion.

Sure. However, what the movie leaves out is the fact that any Christian who could not pay a tax to leave Jerusalem was sold into slavery. Balian and the archbishop ransomed as many Christians as they could with their own money but many Christians in the city ended up being sold into slavery.
