The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die

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.

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.

A nicely done extention of the series but it did nothing to move the Uhtred story forward.

I realize the final battle historically actually occurred and the participants shown were there (except the fictional ones of course) but was the entire movie necessary.

I feel it was not.

I liked the ending of the series and was happy to imagine what may have happened after it ended.

The Last Kingdom was a fantastic series from Bernard Cornwell's exhaustively researched books and I was happy to rewatch the entire series from start every time a new season was released.

Could you miss seeing this film and still feel the series ended well?

Yes, absolutely.

I absolutely enjoyed all 5 seasons therefore for the sake of this story I give it a 7 BUT they made soooo many bad choices. Why first of all must every show these days include lgbtq relationships? This Aethelstan is such a stark contrast to season 5. It's like they go out of the way to include whether it makes sense or not. Is it a rule or something? Second no spoilers but I hate the ending. Be decisive already. 3rd like they need to do a better job tying last episode to this. Also Uhtred made some very stupid choices that are just irritating. I love Uhtred partly because he was smart but the choices he made in this made no sense. Nice twist and turns but still so much less than the series. It didn't flow. All in all it was a disappointment but not a major disappointment. With that said I'd like to see one more for them to just get it right. Maybe with Uhtreds son or something. Look to the series for inspiration. Stay true to that.

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"
