    Default Put it over

    "More than anything, this often fascinatingly confused Crusades epic lacks a leading man with the stature to put it over. Audiences know Russell Crowe. Russell Crowe is their friend. Orlando Bloom is no Russell Crowe."

    What does "put it over" mean here? To succeed or to be understood?

    Many thanks.

    Orlando Bloom is not convincing in the role.
