Who is this made for? I watched the entire first 30 minutes and still have no clue what this is about. Fantasy movie only in name and costumes. All they do is talk. Boring as boring can be. If you have children be careful, there is a scene where a guy is running in the woods naked and his privates are clearly outlined as he prances around. Bizarre. He gets caqptured, castrated and tar and feathered by the elves. Adds nothing to the movie except more disgust and makes no sense. This is not a spoiler, there is nothing here to spoil. I think that is the main action scene in this bore fest.
Listen, I adore Lord of Rings, most fantasy tv shows, and cut them a lot of slack. I forgive much. I am a fantasy geek hardcore. But this thing is not a proper movie. Not even a proper play. Every high school play is better than this. Maybe it was crowd funded? I want my half hour back.
I did fast forward to make sure there were no later scenes to redeem it. But no, zero.

Ideally you want to see this with a significant other or a bunch of good friends, at night.
As others have said, you will become invested in the main characters and care very much what happens to them.
The movie is a little long and almost 2.5 hrs, but the time is well used. Without boring us the writers and director shows us who the main two characters are, their flaws and their strenghts. They are on oposing sides, but credibly build a relationship that they both need. This is done while trying to stay alive.
The movie is so well filmed, acted, and written that you will find it easy to forgive its few small flaws. When the movie relies on conveniently placed vehicles or defies the laws of gravity you will make believe its legit. The movies is that enjoyable, a fun roller coaster ride with many turns and twists.
It has something for everyone. A movie about the healing power of love? Check. Horror to keep you on the edge of your seat? Check. Great action and choreography? Check. Characters that are flawed and believable that you cannot help but root for? Check. Bitter sweet moments, funny moments, poignant moments, stressful moments, joy and horror at the same time? Check check check.... watch it already!!!
