Well done bleak visuals, but a random plot
I remember watching Hammer of the Gods and liking the beginning, then getting disappointed by the ending, so I started watching Sword of Vengeance with apprehension. It was a good idea, because it is kind of the same.The bleak and desolate landscape, the silent warrior, the tyranny of the Normans over the Saxons, I bought it all. It again gave hope of something really good. Unfortunately the plot was a mess. I am not going to explain it here, but let me just say that warrior should have remained silent.
I also researched the characters and I couldn’t find anything historical related to the story. The only real thing is the Harrying of the North where a single source describes the death of 100000 Saxons at the hand of William the Conqueror, but it is unclear how he could have achieved this with the resources he had.
Bottom line: they got the feel right, but they should have worked a lot more on the story and character development. It is a better done movie than Hammer of the Gods, I think, but that movie may have been better overall just because I remember it and this film I will forget after writing this review.
Starts Slowly, But Stay With It
Yes, it’s heavy on style and effect. It’s slow and brooding. It’s turgid and pretentious. But stay with it. It’s a sword-and-sandals kind of action, set in ancient Britain. It has a simple plot: the evil Norman lord and his evil sons are oppressing the Saxon people. The mysterious stranger has history with them. He reignites the conflict between the two groups, to exact his revenge. The action is only passable. Sort of a simulation of skill; rather than an exhibition of same. Otherwise, I’d have given a higher score to this underrated film. Seen on Peacock.
