The Last Kingdom

I had nothing to watch, so I tried something from a different genre than I normally watch and I can happily say that The Last Kingdom is one of the best series I've ever seen. Amazing production design, a well-conceived history (you even learn something new), perfect characters, I found both the villain and the main character with Orlando Bloom's face very likeable, the fights are properly bloody, the tactics and strategy are impressive, the pace is breathtaking, the dialogue is polished, the twists and turns are magical and the finale is spectacular. I haven't been this excited about anything in a long time, and I plan to give the whole thing another go. Ride and PRAISE TO GOD! 100% (22.12.2015)

One of the best series ever. The second season is even more polished than the first. There are a lot of new characters, the emotional impact the series had on me was incredible (I bawled half the series), Siegfrid and Erik are perfect villains, the action is intense and the period atmosphere is incredible. Destiny is All. 150%. (01.06.2017)

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)

Like previous seasons, another five star affair and the best historical series ever. The battle in the 4th episode was such an emotional load that I didn't know whether to cry at the intransigence of the characters or scream with excitement at the rough and dirty action. I also enjoyed the new young leader of the Vikings, who is surprisingly fair and likeable. Can’t wait for season 5! 100% (08.05.2020)
