Merlin and the book of Awesome!
10 August 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Let's be honest; If you were wondering if this film is for you, the answer is yes! It's got something for everyone. If you're looking for romance, family feel good, or even action, then this film supplies it. James Callis' new spin on the legendary wizard of Camelot was surely Merlin's most prestigious return to the silver screen. If you want to hear Merlin's famous gruff welsh accent then look no further. We all know that part of his mysterious persona is not being able to hear or understand at least 50% of what he says.

I almost believed I was part of the action. In fact, yesterday, In a brawl with myself in a local mirror, I tried to hug myself to diffuse the situation. Clashed heads though, blood everywhere, not as effective as Merlin's cast. of course though, they are trained professionals, what do I know.

The film is packed with morale fibre. It says to its audience, "we're going to mention some disturbing incest, and then not really discourage or even repress the idea."

What more could you want. Merlin's ever lasting wisdom and combat efficiency is astounding. Truly an unforgettable ending. I'll never forget the... book.man.?being stopped? or something. yeah, brilliant.

I have to say I loved the way in which Medussa's powers varied in strength from person to person. Slow creeping stone or instant rock form. Take your pick.

The music carried the characters into further intense spirals of truly record breaking writing. Who knew a WOMAN could touch Excalibur.

I would say this film rivals LOTR in depth of character and story progression.

Please, watch this film. 10/10
