To me, this movie is perfection.
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
The tale takes place in a fictional time and place years after "The Great Wars" when all races now live together. Bartok (Morgan Freeman) is an old master or lord whose days are numbered. He has no heir and hands over his lands to his "retainer" Raiden (Clive Owen) a person of dubious background, but who now has honor. Bartok is required to make additional tribute to the first council (Robert Russell) which he finds objectionable. Things go downhill from this point and for awhile we have to deal with another drunk Hercules movie.This was a fairly decent knight/fight film having the right amount of plot. I liked the little flashback details. Clive Owen played the role in a fairly deadpan fashion. He would not have been my first choice. Freeman does have lengthy rant about taxes, bribes and extortion generic to all government systems.Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity.
LAST KNIGHTS is an unusual and only semi-successful historical adventure with fantasy touches and a B-movie atmosphere. It's one of those films which slipped under the radar but provides some elements of interest for the genre fan. It certainly looks nice, with every penny of the budget having gone into the costumes and locations, and the otherworldly setting brings to mind the likes of INTO THE BADLANDS and GAME OF THRONES, although it's not quite as authentic or well-realised. Sadly, the plot has some big problems, far too simplistic to sustain the running time, which means that for a big chunk of the middle part of the film the actors have little to do other than sit around and twiddle their thumbs. It's a pity, as Clive Owen and Morgan Freeman give solid performances, and Aksel Hennie is remarkable, as always.
I watched this movie and it was very good movie.It was well acted and scripted. I am entirely confused why this has a 6 star rating. The story line does not get so boring that i start looking at memes on my phone during the movie. This was a great movie i would recommend to friends. (if i had any)Plus it has Morgan Freeman.
I Personally like these medieval stories and since I had it recorded on PVR I was able to FF through some of the sword fight scenes. and shorten the viewing time enough to make it more enjoyable.As I am not a critic and because everyone has different tastes and opinions on what does or does not make for good cinematography or story lines, I will leave it at that and because I need a minimum of 10 text line on my posting, enjoy the movie. lastly I would like to point just one of theGOOFS... I believe it was Maria standing prepping food by the table and I noticed a very modern smooth shiny stainless steel bowl in the center of the table. The props people were definitely not thinking very well.
