Mythica: The Godslayer

I like the Mythica series, even though they arguably aren't anything really special and are ultimately flawed they still deliver a wondrous charm and much needed dose of fantasy cinema.

This fifth and final movie culminates the long running story with every major cast member there for the final battle to save the world from the power hungry necromancer.

I believe here they saved the best till last, the finale is beautifully fitting and ends the franchise on a high note.

I very much hope the cast and creators go on to do bigger things as they have proved here they have the ability to deliver.

In an industry with such a drought within the fantasy genre Mythica movies are a breath of fresh air and to see a franchise deliver five movies, complete with the same cast and able to play out a story to the end is a true accomplishment and I tip my hat.

Mythica you shall be missed, hopefully your legacy will open doors.

The Good:

The cast are amazing as always

Fantastic Mythica charm

The movies have built up to a brilliant fitting finale

The Bad:

Still flawed in places

Hodor, Hodor, Hodor

Kevin Sorbo, I'm sorry but this guy just sucks on so many levels

While the acting and effects were inconsistent throughout this series, this final movie wrapped everything up nicely. There were some nice effects, the acting by the main cast was decent, and it had some genuine humour.

A solid 6.

This is not Lord of the Rings. It is not even big budget. What it is, is brilliant achievement given the budget. All the movies are watchable and entertaining, I watched them all on Amazon as soon as they came out.

It is difficult to believe the same director who turned Mythica 4 into a comedy made Mythica 5 the incredible film that it is. This is the fifth and final film in the series, and by far the most serious and interesting. We learn so much about the characters and where they come from, and why they are on this quest. The film was actually quite scary at times. It is a vast improvement on Mythica 4 and a fulfilling grand finale. Director John Lyden really treated this final film with respect. The visuals are once again very good. The ending was completely unexpected.

'Mythica' was indeed a fun and exciting series and I definitely would like to watch the entire series again. Well done!

It's not high art, but in my opinion this pentology is a worthy effort and well worth watching. It starts off slow with part 1 (A Quest for Heroes) featuring a slave girl (Melanie Stone) gradually coming into her power as a necromancer, or sorceress wielding dark magic.

Although the first movie has a satisfying ending, you may still thirst for more adventures in the Mythica universe. Fortunately, there are four more, queued up and ready to roll!

The movies gather steam, and darkness, culminating in The Godslayer, the high-stakes finale of the series. There is enough magic, and swords, and evil sorcerers, and good sorceresses, and even a couple of gods, to satisfy everyone.

Some people call it some kind of B-grade kickstarter movie, but in my opinion it's a captivating and charming series, B or C or whatever. The actors are sincere and skillful, the writing moves the story along, and the special effects (where they even exist) are minimalist but effective.

Now I wonder if there will ever be a sequel, but really, five movies is plenty, and in 2-3 years I will definitely be watching this one again!
