The Last Kingdom - Série 3

I remember that The Last Kingdom was originally supposed to be filler before Vikings came out, but now it’s a full-fledged competitor that actually surpasses Vikings in everything. Visually impressive, historically accurate, the action is brutal but more intimate than spectacular, and the twists and turns are elaborate and shocking. The new characters are a grat (Skade and Bloodhead are awesome) and Uthred is an increasingly better and more interesting hero. One of the best historical series of our time. An emotional historical orgasm. 100%. (30.12.2018)

I was a little afraid that Netflix was going to turn the cultured BBC Knighthood into a new Game of Thrones. Fortunately, the annoying buck-toothed sex bomb Skade doesn't get as much space, ensuring that Uthred gets a new edge again. This character has developed into one of the most interesting and fun characters over the course of three seasons. The creators care to make sure that the viewer can never have a completely anchored relationship with him. Uthred is an unpredictable, wandering character, so all the direct sympathy is captured by the ingenious sidekick Finnan. It may seem for a while that the third season wants to focus on pagan superstitions, but the second half is a pure masterpiece of a straightforward and emotional historical battles. King Alfred and his relationship with Uthred take care of the emotional pinnacle of the series, and the creators still have enough characters in reserve that they can break into and pull down in a scene (Beocca). This series is the essence of knightly epics and heroic fantasy. This is the story of a man who carries kings on his shoulders, but who is always deleted from the chronicles because he is too problematic and does not fit completely into any storytelling ... except for in The Last Kingdom. No matter how The Witcher turns out, I’ll stay calm. I have Uthred. Destiny is all! (01.12.2018)

I really enjoyed the third season of The Last Kingdom. Unlike most other series, this one seems to get better with each new season. For the most part, the third season kept up a brisk pace and a great atmosphere. The authors created a perfect medieval setting full of intrigue and manipulation. They handled the battle scenes very well, and you could tell the budget was increased compared to the first season. Complete satisfaction on my part. (04.09.2019)
