Empire Queen: The Golden Age of Magic

Empire Queen was recommended to us by Prime Video analytics. -Thanks Amazon. Had honestly never heard of it before, but we were very surprised.

At a time when the world is getting so depressing, and turning on the TV NEWS should only be done at your own risk, it was refreshing to find a film that made us all feel good, laugh, and believe that miracles can happen.

I Read that the idea for the movie came from a music video. Have not seen that yet, but will have to look that up. I especially enjoyed the balance of humor, magic,and drama. The actors were all new to me, but that seems to happen more and more these days. All the leads were good and believable. Liked the masked villain, and the lead Actress... plus the music is fantastic

If you want an enjoyable distraction from our troubled times, I am happy to recommend this film. - It's well worth the watch.

We were very pleasantly surprised by how fun and adventures this new fantasy film is. Plus, the cinematography, costumes and score are first class, and really lifted the experience for us.

We noticed that its not a studio film either, rather an independent, which makes it even more impressive. Our whole family really enjoyed it. Laughed out loud a few times too. (Fart Dart-Ha)

It's very good for kids. (our son is 10 and daughter 14) It has a Princess Bride flavor to it, and that is rare. We gave it 8 Stars, and would watch it again (especially my son)

Of note, the two female leads, Ciel Post, and Mary Elise Hayden, are terrific playing against each other.

At first we were concern by the longer running time, and worried the kids might get bored. Its not the case here, we were surprised how fast and well paced the movie is. - Hope they do a sequel!

Don't know where to start with this.

I love a campy fantasy as much as the next man, but this is just a bit pants.

The acting. Wooden, but not wooden in an over played kind of way, it's just, well.. it's wooden.

Think a porn film, & you're close. Some of the actors & actresses look like any second they're going to "whip out my magic wand", if you get what I mean.

The sound is also, haha, wooden. As if recorded within a shed. There's a bit of an echo, bit of background noise. It's just not ever so clear. Some of the sound is also off, not matching up with the actions.

The backgrounds. Not gonna believe this, but it looks wooden. A mass of CGI for interior shots. Looks okay, but looks very flat.

Me & the missus managed about half a painful hour of this before giving up.

I'm giving it a FOUR as it's a good attempt.

I wanted to like it, I wanted it to be not too serious.

It's not for me...

In a cluttered world of films you can watch. Many parents find it hard to find family friendly films.. This is family friendly film that has a great story and is a fun fantasy for all ages. There's NO foul language in it. The look in the costumes are awesome. They're funny moments in it.. I won't give a lot away, but if you like movies like pirates of the Caribbean. Then you'll fantastic independently made film. I think it should get more exposure than it has. Watch it you won't be disappointed.. they have great locations and have a lot of great characters throughout the film.. I liked this film so much I had to make a comment.

These actors (especially the leads) should definitely uncheck English (British) Accents off all of their casting websites. Within five seconds I could tell they were not British. They were so bad it was hard to submerge myself into the story. It would have been better if they spoke without it.

The story was mid, boring, and all of the place. There were so many random scenes that added absolutely nothing to the overall plot. The narration explaining what was happening was not it for me and unnecessary. A good story doesn't need to tell the viewer what is happening.

I will never watch this again.
