The Last Redemption

So, went in expecting a time waster, watchable swords and armour flick, no expectations.

My already low expectations were sadly dashed by just how boring, wooden and stupifying this sad excuse for a movie really is.

Stilted dialogue, terrible continuation, rubbish sound, the list goes on and on... Now, apparently there is a clever plot, however I missed have missed this bit as I drifted in and out of sleep through sheer boredom.

Further Orcs? What Orcs as advertised? Bunch of bad cheap rubber maks that really has very little relivence to whatever storyline already vaguely existed and Gimli and Legolas would have been very disappointed at the lack of challenge they presented... To summerise, if it is a choice between a root canal proceedure at your Dentist, or watching this movie I highly recommend the root canal as the more pleasurable option.

I watched like 20 minutes of it, enough to find everything: budget, story, characters, dialogue, fighting, acting, direction to be terrible. I mean, the starting scene is a woman carrying a child in slow motion and monologuing using words like "math". She's supposed to be a medieval outlaw.

I actually wanted to see this because Kevin Sorbo and orcs, I thought it was another Arrowstorm Entertainment production, but it's another entertainment's and it's not good at all.

What really spooked me is that really good veteran actors were doing so poorly: James Cosmo, Angus MacFayden, even Kevin Sorbo, even if he mostly plays himself at all times. The moment they introduced a small girl that couldn't act if her life depended on it, I turned it off.

The Last Redemption directed by the talented John Real, is a cinematic work that captures the imagination and hearts of viewers through a combination of adventure, emotion, and a top-notch cast. With actors of the caliber of Kevin Sorbo, Natalie Burn, James Cosmo, Angus McFadyen, and Neb Chupin, the film delivers a powerful and engaging narrative. The plot follows the adventures of Diana (Natalie Burn), a strong and daring outlaw who stands against the tyrant Lord Roland (Kevin Sorbo), whose lust for power threatens to destroy the peace in the kingdom of Brea. The character development is excellent; Diana is portrayed as a complex and determined heroine, while Sorbo beautifully embodies the charismatic and ruthless villain. Each actor brings a unique energy to the film, enriching the storyline with memorable performances.

James Cosmo, playing a wise mentor, provides a sense of depth and wisdom to the narrative, while John Real portrays a respected warrior who joins Diana's cause. Angus McFadyen, in his role, adds touches of humor and humanity, balancing the dramatic tensions of the film and making the calmer moments even more impactful. John Real's direction is another strong point of the film. His visual skills succeed in conveying both the wonder and peril of the world of Brea, thanks to cinematography that captures breathtaking landscapes and exhilarating action scenes. Each sequence is well choreographed, with a rhythm that keeps the audience glued to the screen. Moreover, the soundtrack is stirring and perfectly intensifies the protagonists' journey. It builds an atmosphere that accompanies the ups and downs of the story, making each battle and every crucial moment even more engaging.

"The Last Redemption" stands out as a film that not only entertains but also conveys a significant message about courage, solidarity, and the fight against oppression. In an era where we often find ourselves surrounded by negative news, this film offers a ray of hope and an invitation to believe in the strength of unity. In conclusion, "The Last Redemption" is a work that deserves to be seen. With a captivating plot, well-developed characters, and a superb cast, this film is an experience that will remain etched in the minds of viewers. A true celebration of heroes and values, combining action and emotional depth. Don't miss the chance to experience this extraordinary adventure!

This had the potential to be something great. Its story is actually engaging, with solid world-building and an interesting premise. Unfortunately, everything else drags it down.

The acting is wooden and unconvincing, making it hard to connect with the characters. The dialogue feels unnatural, as if the script was written in a rush without a second draft. And the directing? A complete mess. Scenes feel disjointed, pacing is all over the place, and emotional moments fall flat because of poor execution.

It's frustrating because there's a good story buried underneath all these flaws. If only it had been handled by a more capable team, this could have been a fantastic film. Instead, it ends up as a disappointment.
