must be interesting huh?🤷‍♂️😒the movie I meant.

4/10

hhhh

I watched the first one (The Quest for Heroes) because it was on Amazon Prime and looked interesting. It was okay. I went a few weeks and then decided to watch the next movie, then the next day I watched the 3rd. By this time I'm used to the characters and want to find out what happened next. I watched number 4 and 5 the following day. Each one seemed to get better. Understand this, these movies are not incredibly well made. It looks like it was made for TV and not theater quality, which didn't bother me. Acting was good, filming locations where beautiful but the CGI was low budget. It really seemed like I was watching a TV series with really long episodes. Especially since this is one story broken up into 5 movies. I liked it and really wanted to watch it to the end. If you like the medieval, wizardry, love story, underdog type story...this is for you.

What this movie lacks in the opening scene, it more than makes up for during the rest of the movie. This is not a movie for the run of the mill movie watcher. Do not watch this movie expecting another Lord of the Rings movie, or something Game of Thrones-esque. This movie isn't going for giving you another blue-filter dark tale of moody characters in a moody world. Nor is it for the special effects geek or the over-analyzing movie critic who tries to apply the same rules of critique to a Wes Anderson movie and a high-fantasy movie. This movie is for the lovers of fantasy role-playing games, and the fan of the cheerful fantasy movies. This is for you who liked Willow, this is for you who liked the Legends movie. This is about the love of adventure and the chemistry between characters. It is about the love of mystery, deities and magic. The effects are more than good enough to tell the tale, and most of the acting is perfect for the roles they are portraying. There are movies that are made with skill, and there are movies that are made with love. The love permeates the making of this movie, and the skill is there as well. You can tell that this isn't made in the Hollywood movie factory where an IP is bought and milked for money by generic directors and generic actors. This isn't Samuel Jackson looking lost trying to be a Jedi. This is made by people who understands and loves the genre. If you love and understand the high-fantasy movie genre, do not miss this movie. It is a gem you will carry with you for the rest of your life.

OK, so our main character is the definition of Mary Sue knowing a lot of complex things she could not have learned as a slave. You may think "Hercules" taught her but it seems he only taught her some basic magic. Another interesting part are the mythical creatures or rather lack of. The CGI is extremely poorly made , so bad that I know movies from the 70-80's that have more realistic monsters than this one (Sinbad's journeys for instance). The only thing that was interesting was the redhead who was hot as fire and the only character that was not paper thin was the half elf. Most of the dialogue sounds like written by a kindergartner and he story is pretty much non-existent. Also what happened to all that trapped people? weren't they supposed to save them? That being said I cannot say I did not enjoy the movie as the redhead is hot.
