I like revenge films and medieval films, but this one was surprisingly bad. The lead "hero" character doesn't talk much and, rather than coming off as mysterious, he just appears uncharismatic and dull. Not much of a story at all. Certainly nothing we haven't seen before. The fight scenes are serviceable, but again, nothing new. The director overuses slow motion.
And what was up with the color grading? This is the worst color grading I've ever seen. The whole movie is so desaturated that it appears to be almost black and white.
The sets are amateurish and cheap looking. About 90% of the movie takes place in a few muddy fields.
I can't believe a movie like this managed to get as much star power as it did: Karel Roden, Annabelle Wallis and Ed Skrein have all been in better movies. Seriously, they must have blown their entire budget on those three, because it certainly wasn't used for costumes or sets or (more importantly) writers...
