... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreThis film is a lot better than I expected it to be and one that made me laugh almost all the way through the movie. Definitely glad that I found this on Netflix
... View MoreImagine a Disney Channel Original Movie with a level of absurdity that I thought was impossible outside of a made for TV from the 80's. No cliché is beneath this movie. The closest thing to a spoiler I can give you is that if you see something coming and dismiss it because it sounds like something a child would write-it will happen. This movie is so bad it's good, and watching it is an experience that I would never give up.
... View MoreI have long complained of the lack of truly great films in the last several years. There have been countless popular films that are entirely devoid of creativity that play to the audience's ignorance and basest nature. Films rife with titillation for the sake of selling tickets, a level of gore well beyond what is necessary to tell the story, stories that are weaker than wet paper, beautiful actors who can memorize lines but are unable to actually act.Albion is not one of those. I got the film for my children expecting to be bored, sickened by the heavy-handed message, or irritated by an insipid production. I was so completely glad to be wrong. The film is visually stunning in many parts. The story is simple, relying on fantasy, fable, and myth for character archetypes as well as storyline. Refreshingly, the villain is not misunderstood or a shade of grey, he's just plain bad and the heroes are good.It is a movie about hope, redemption, and love conquering all. Albion will be part of our family video library.If you are one of those people who think obvious plot twists are clever, think that concepts of Good and Bad are trite, or believe that the world should be seen in shades of grey, this movie is not for you.
... View MoreDisappointed. I liked parts of the movie however it seemed to fall apart it could have been great perhaps it was rushed due to cash running out.Parts needed rewriting so everything flowed better,leading role was convincing as were most characters,wardrobe had some obvious flaws, more money more time is always the battle.
