El Rey gaélico

Having watched 10 minutes of this flick my one and only reaction was "oh dear".....

In my opinion this really is an amateur effort.It reminds me of the sort of thing you might expect a volunteer dramatic society to put on for the oldies. That said, it would not matter how old I got I don't think I could sit through The Garlic King or Gaelic King or whatever this is supposed to be.

My advice steer well clear. One out of ten from me.

This movie reminds me of the life adventures in the forest we did when we were young. Acting is about that level.sort of ridiculous.

I have had diareah. All off them is better than this movie. If i could - i would go back in time, Get diareah another time. For atleast one week. And then i would go for the extra week.

Hey, what can I say, I liked it. And so will you if you're not expecting big budgets.

Like horses and swords? Me too. Like wicked sorceresses? Me too. Like evil minions? Win. The truth is that low budget movies like this don't often make it to market, and the cover art is so good that people will be expecting big Hollywood money. But one star is just silly.

I found it very enjoyable, under a blanket with a nice cup of tea kind of film. If you know before you start that it's low budget you'll really enjoy it. Good story, fun baddies, some acting is a little wobbly some is strong. Beautiful scenery and some nice tight editing. All in all a really great job, good old fashioned storytelling.

Sometimes people forget that not all films can have multimillion Hollywood budgets.

Of course there are some low budget films which are embarrassingly atrocious, some i've reviewed, many more, i'm grateful to have so far avoided.

This is a low budget film, but it does very well with the restraints. I would say where it fell short was with the effects. Why did the 'black cloud laddies' look like extras from 'Men In Black'? Their design was not good. Some of the fight scenes were poor, and why were the Picts wearing tie dyed jeans? I'd also have liked to see this take a different direction, rather than going the 'sword and sorcery' route. There's enough ancient Scottish myths and legends they could've incorporated, if they really wanted to do something mystical.

On the whole though, this really isn't a bad film, it's low budget, and there's a massive difference between the two. It was filmed well, the editing was good, the dialogue was far from the worst i've heard and the story was well told.

Ignore the overly critical reviews of this film. I don't know what some were expecting for a low budget film. Of course, it's not perfect, that stands to reason, but it's far from the disaster some would have you believe.
