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.
