Kingslayer

Low budget yes, but bad acting? No. It's ok. Better than some big budget films. Not an implausible story. The plot isn't bad given the subjects discussed. The presence of Anslem and William Marshall doesn't need explaining. Others have critisised wokeness but for the life of me, I didn't see this. That not all characters are white doesn't make the film historically inaccurate. Race and ethnicity was much less of an issue in medieval times than it is now. It is enjoyable, uncomplicated, so easy to follow. At last a film from the medieval period that does not feature a dragon, wizards or Michael Caine.

Low budget, badly acted, poorly directed, laughable editing.

Feels like a 'made during lockdown' type movie, and that's not good.

I gave it 2 because getting a movie made on this level of budget gets a thumbs up and the basic storyline (made up drivel notwithstanding) is at least passable. Low budget, badly acted, poorly directed, laughable editing.

The story was kinda good and I liked the idea of the storyline , the whole Film had a bit of an amateurish feel about it, but was an interesting watch. I didn't really feel the romance from the two leads and found the whole thing a bit muddled took me a while to get to grips with who was double crossing who! The main actor seemed a little out of his depth and his beard was a bit distracting but my favourite part of the whole experience was the music it actually made it for me and I've downloaded some of the composers music. So in short my review is 5 for the film but a 10 for the soundtrack shame it's not available to download.

From the director of Wolf and The Necromancer, I was ready for another wild ride of bloodshed and grief in an isolated location, driven by a fantasy story. I certainly got that, and more. Each character distinct, colourful and purposeful. There comes a moment that is beautiful and cuts very deeply, returning later to cut some more, and it's so very effective and resonant. This isn't a huge budget epic of cgi armies battling, like the many countless number of other films in this kind of story, and I'm thankful- it's much more personal, thoughtful and soulful. I love the creativity.

Heavy lies the crown indeed.

Jarring cinematography coupled with poor direction, acting and script makes for a tedious experience. The scene where the woman is accosted by the group of armed women and men was particularly bad. The acting from the bearded guy that gets interrogated by the main protagonist at knife point while laying on the ground was amateur and devoid of truth.
