The Last Kingdom: Sept rois doivent mourir

I am a huge fan of the show, although it had its flaws it was always very entertaining. This movie however starts out very confusing with one of the main character being gone apparently in between movies without much explanation. Its pacing is extremely rushed, it felt like they where trying to put 1-2 seasons worth of story into one movie. On top of it all because its a movie you are expecting a movie budget and therefor a more epic battle which it did not deliver on at all. There are better and more epic episodes of this show then what this movie gave us. A very disappointing ending to an entertaining show.

Let me just say that i believe that "The Last Kingdom" is one of the most underrated series of the new era of TV..It started like a low budget Vikings series and Netflix made it as one of the best series it has on his platform with each season being better from the previous one... Alexander Dreymon is not a great actor but he is born for this role and he proves it once more.."Seven kings must die is a great(not perfect) conclusion to a beautiful saga that i believe ends here..Now,the production stays in the same level as the late seasons,i really loved they made the fight scenes more realistic,the performances are as good as it always was and at the end is a movie that is providing to the Last Kingdom saga and not ruin it...Now it's finally time to say farewell to this incredible show that keep us company for 8 whole years.

"Destiny is all"

Words cannot express how disappointed I am with this movie that should have been a full season. Everyone involved tried their best, but it is clear that Netflix left them with two hours instead of the necessary 12 to finish the story properly. The relationship between two step brothers eying the throne. How Aethalstan just becomes a tyrant. How his father even died? And the gay advisor? WHY?

It amazes me how deft these corporations are. You have a beloved series and you just let it fall to pieces. I mean look at GOT. They should have fired D&D and gotten new showrunners. In this case it is obvious Netflix just decided on a movie rather than pay the talented creators, actors, writers, and everyoneone else involved, probably to make another horrible anime live action, or the crap witcher prequel.

Should take a note from Vince Gilliam and let it go till he see's it fit to end.

I thank everyone involved for 5 seasons of the best historically based fantasy I've seen.

Destiny is all, and hopefully Netflix will feel that fire one day.

Seven Kings Must Die,

Only leaving a review as I am a huge Last Kingdom fan. I wish this movie were a mini tv series rather than a movie, as it was too fast-paced, and major events were happening one after another. The ending was great hence seven stars. Otherwise, I would have given it a lower rating.

I feel like if it was a two-hour-long plus movie, they could have had the ability to add suspense and emotion.

But the overall decent movie, acting superb as usual from the actors. The script was great as usual. I will miss this trilogy.

Seven kings must die - 7/10.

The Last Kingdom - 10/10.

Films that have grown out of a television series face a number of issues, one of the most challenging of which is finding a story that justifies their existence. It's too easy for these films to be cursed with wafer-thin, overstretched plots. This film faces the opposite problem, presumably because it's adapted from multiple books that would under other circumstances have provided the basis of more than one season of television. There's certainly enough to suggest that possibility here. The show was underrated and deserved a more coherent conclusion; it's perhaps because most of the film's viewers have spent five seasons with these characters and this world that we're willing to forgive a plot-heavy, character-light conclusion. For those of those of us so invested, it's enjoyable and immersive, but we do wish it had been more; like the show, the film's climactic battle is thrillingly intense and coherently staged where it could easily have been bafflingly chaotic. The final pay off works; you just can't help wishing it had been more.
