Kingslayer

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.

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.

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.

I for one absolutely loved the film. Beautiful love story in the beautiful forest, yo the camera work was exceptional we've all seen better however the colorful scenery the costumes were exceptional. The girl was beautiful, who doesn't agree with that. Richard had the beauty we all long to fight for. He showed masculinity and did so humbly. Oh, cannot leave out the best and most important part. It's definitely a romantic love story Overall I there's nowhere near enough of this type of film available today I thread through many that are 10 times worse than this film. The Kingslayer is a masterpiece of its own kind.

I know its 2022 and we all expect a lil' wokeness as governed by the shadowy CEO from Blackrock and Vanguard, but the blatant rewriting of history to include sub-saharan immis is a fail. Do you wonder why the world hates your movies? Do you think you are doing justice to people by making up stories about a past King of England, who by the way, was a nasty piece of work. But I'm sure he wasn't as nasty as this movie, or its attempt to slip the public the misconception of Western history.

Beyond this, there are other bad elements, such as: -Bad character intro/development. What can I say about the non-introduction of characters? Its just not really there.

-Is the camera man infatuated with tree shots, or was he drunk? I don't understand why the director spent so much time filming the trees and bark. And near the end of each scene, the camera points up, giving the audience the view of the sky littered with branches obscuring the view, almost as obscure as the rest of this film.

-The plot is bad. Seriously, the non-king-yet Richard sneaks off to the woods to meet his horse trainer woman so they can get it on, but before that happens, the poor folk are there to assassinate him. Add the ugly man who rapes women, and the woman that cuts off his gnards. How liberating it must be, to emasculate all the men... how pathetic.

The acting is poor, but what does one expect when the director is bad at his/hers/theirs/whatever job? I mean, I could see the actors were trying, but I bet it was a hard job working with that director. So I suppose the actors probably put up with a lot of crap just to get paid; c'est la vie.

But is it? Is this what modern film making is now? Just the rewriting of history so that gobs of the population become woke?

We, the people, reject this attempt to rewrite history and also hate this movie.

Director is to blame for a lot of this, but the wokeness is disingenuous to say the least.
