Medieval movies are like sex, when they're good, they're good, and when they're bad, they're still pretty good :)
30 November 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I recorded this movie 18 Feb 2017, it was showing on Fox Action Movies HD Channel. Today 30 Nov 2017, my mom wanted to watch some movie. So I went down the list and found the name Richard The Lionheart (without the word Rebellion).

Anyhow I started playing the movie and I first thought it was like an old version like from 80's 90's, I'm surprised it was made in 2015, also I noticed the cuts between scenes weren't normal but I thought it was done by the channel to fit the movie in the allocated time slot.

Anyhow, I noticed that it was kind of medium quality flick but kept watching since my mom loves movies and used to watch the TMC channel back in the states which used to show all these old movies. So I guess it felt normal, ha ha.

Anyhow, we kept watching and we enjoyed it. I know it is not a perfect movie but my point is that we enjoyed it and my mom even wanted more. She actually she was not convinced the movie ended when the father King said "prepare for war". So I started searching for a sequel and here found all these funny and harsh comments.

I know again that it is not the best movie out there, but please know that some people enjoy those movies even if they are not perfect. Not everyone is so detail oriented and a critic or a film maker like some of you here.

I really feel bad for the movie makers for the so much bad reviews here. but I know it is a learning step for all of them to become even better. But wanted to write this review to let them know that my mom and I enjoyed it even with some of those flaws listed by others.

Not just that, we're ready for the sequel please. May be the sequel will be much better since the film makers must have learned a lot from making this film.

This is my own statement and I'm not being paid by anyone. We are in Abu Dhabi in Nov 2017 and we've just watched and enjoyed Richard The Lionheart - Rebellion.

I guess some things are just loved by fans. Remember the T-Shirt that said Skiing is like Sex, when it's good, it's good and when it's bad, it's still good. I guess for me and my mom, we love movies so much, and I love this medieval genre, so even a mediocre medieval movie is still a good movie :)
