Paul W @RT58781374 May 18 James Purefoy enters the fantasy action genre with a great success. In 3 acts he goes from merciless conqueror, penitent monk to condemned killer how hunting the evil that enslaved his homeland. The supporting cast of Alice Krige, Pete Postlewaite and even Max von Sydow as the father and king of the realm now hellvound. The story may be formulaic but the actors commit and the atmosphere turns witht the plot expertly.

Extremely well directed, love the cinnamonography, very well choreographed high action scenes, lots of layers of detail in the sets/ costumes, appreciated the gritty atmospheric realness. Epic soundtrack too! The cast was well chosen, zero negative feedback on that. Overall, this was a very enjoyable movie as a fan of this genre, it kept a nice evolving pace, would definitely recommend!

It feels mid-tier in the same way Medieval felt mid-tier, but there are no glaringly out of place American accents in this. This was worth the watch but felt 15 minutes too long. The plot meanders a bit and the church scene about halfway in could have been removed or heavily shortened. STOP reading to avoid a slight spoiler. What was the point of the basement ghouls? They are in no other scenes. If this movie was 90 minutes I’d give it 4 stars. See more Gareth v @geewah 07/23/2025 A brooding and underrated dark fantasy adventure. Gritty, earnest, and anchored by a strong redemption arc, Solomon Kane deserves more recognition than it got. See more Jelisije J @jjosifovic 03/09/2025 An above average dark fantasy film that actually did an origin story justice? Now I know why people wanted a trilogy. Its because the first movie showed promise and potential and given the latest disappointing lazy hollywood sequels this movie deserves the chance to be a franchise.

I'm a little fuzzy of whether or not it followed the comic book story perfectly but I didn't care it was good enough the movie was spectacular in my eyes to see one of my childhood characters come to life in such a way this actor could not have been chosen better. The story was engaging there was action almost everywhere the excitement of what would occur it was a true hero's journey to face the big bad surprise at the end. See more Read all reviews
