Review: It’s actually a good movie. And perhaps the best part about it – unique, I emphasize the atmosphere of “a fantasy western.” Here are a couple of chopped perekinuvshis phrases are standing opposite each other, hung over the hand of the sword hilt (revolvers is not), tense faces close up and ru-tu-tu-tu-tu – tune a la “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.” But no revolvers. And because the whole movie in someone may be, what ever throw. The enemy is flying all the knives, axes, and even swords. Archery duel, where the same old good outcome – the “quick and the dead.” So many clever shots and aimed shot in the absence of fire-arms (well, except for a pair of magic end of the world) or more where I did not meet. This is a highlight of the film and its uniqueness. Shot and edited very well, so that even a couple of episodes now looks entertaining. In contrast to-hand combat, which is also missing, but he just looked amusing when I was nine years old.
Yet Hawk the Slayer is a good movie, because filming it (believe it), putting the soul. Actors (most of) a really good game and lots of really bright for bit parts in the same film has earned the right to withdraw from the group of “ten pieces for a penny.” Sets and costumes made for three pounds sterling look at all six, and the director and operator up for a lack of professionalism and enthusiasm valiant Remove acumen. Can be objectively film pulls at most 5 of 10, but what sort of objectivity here …
