About
You’ll like this if you want a dark, violent sword-and-fantasy redemption ride with moody period atmosphere and lots of action; Not for you if you prefer light horror-free adventures like Ironclad or Conan the Barbarian.
Pros: dark redemption tale; strong performances; thrilling action | Cons: predictable plot; violent intensity; some pacing/story gaps
