    Good Time Fantasy Flick!

    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!

    Family friendly film

    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.

    Really enjoyed it!

    I knew this was an indie and wasn't sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised when I finally watched it. Empire Queen totally delivers! The comedy is adorably charming, with laugh-out-loud moments that are as cute as they are clever. The action is well thought out and enjoyable, balancing excitement with playful twists. Not to mention the stunning locations. I love the feeling of being exported to another world, adding a magical backdrop to this whimsical adventure. Empire Queen is a must-watch for anyone who loves a fun, feel-good film that doesn't take itself too seriously.

    I would love to see a sequel!

    Here it is! Hallelujah!

    If you're in the club, you're in the club! If you know, you know. And boy do I pitty the sorry fool that doesn't know. Glad I know! Shine on me foreverrrrrrrrrrr. Let there be magic for everyone! Whooooo!! This was lit! The music was fire! Some pretty entertaining story lines and that answered the questions I had in the music videos. Visually this thing satisfied my soul and I'm wondering where the heck it was shot cause I know that ain't only green screen. Only thing still looming over my head though is the whereabouts and happenings of that og crocodile, so I gotta give it a nine. Let there be a sequel for everyone so my dreams can take FLIGHT!!! Amen!

    Look lovely, but it's a bit naff...

    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...

    • Trivia
      The Empire Queen movie was born from the "Shine On Me" music video by Chris Dane Owens
    • Goofs
      At the 21 minute mark when the girl is found picking flowers, in EVERY cut back to her the flowers in her hands, and what she's picking changes ... in reverse. It starts with dark blue and red flowers, then pink and light blue as she picks the red, then light blue as she picks the pink with the red beside it. It's like the editor spliced the film back into the main cut BACKWARDS.
