My guess: 7,7? - 2020? (7,1 - 2022)
My Points: 8,3 - 4/5
This movies beginning, reminded too much Conan the Barbarian (1982). It (Conan) is a great movie, but I didn't like the resemble. But when this movie got up to speed, I liked it - very much!
The campfire scene where very strange, I kinda didn't like it - it indeed was too strange. The field game though was nice.
Nicole Kidman seemed a little bit useless, but when the movie got ahead, she became a valuable actor.
Ethan Hawke & Willem Dafoe where kinda useless. I like both of them, but their roles were way too short...
One of the speech, reminded lots of Gladiator (2000), and the movie resemble lots of Skyrim & GoT. But, why not take good part of something other that is good - and use it on your own movie. Everybody does that! At least if you dont steal it tasteless - this movie didn't take it like that. Even though this took parts of other entertainment, it was classically good!
Torture scene seemed to be brutal (lots of blood & sweat), but it wasn't... It was kinda relief, 'cause it look a very brutal - but they ended it, before it even started!
'Magical' parts were kinda ridicilous, although they were pretty cool. I haven't (always) never liked 'magical' things in movies, but... I can accept them, cause they're almost always nice looking!
The end "ash" fight at the end were very fine and beatiful, I liked it very much!
Alexander Skarsgård and Anya Taylor-Joy were good actors, their relationship were nicely build up.
Overall, a great movie - which I recommend to everyone to see. But if you dont like blood & core, then you could maybe avoid this movie.
