Mythica 3: The Necromancer

The first was excellent, the second pretty good, and this third rises up toward excellent again! It is very promising that a series can maintain itself so long. They should be watched in order. Of course, every film has detractors where the film is not for them, so decide if you like the basic premise and look at the positive reviews. It held well in adventure with battle scenes at the right moments and magic not overused, a good plot with interesting and unexpected turns without being complex, a dialogue that was enough to carry you without being wordy, principles of sacrifice you connected to - there was never a moment where your mind stopped to wander, and was able to capture a number of symbolic moments where you really felt triumph and success. Very much recommend, and well done to the producer and cast, I'm sure they all had a lot of fun!

And so the saga continues - a saga I thoroughly enjoy for its beautiful locations and the adrenaline of adventure with obstacles thrown in around every corner. The photography and visuals seem to get better as the series continues. I did miss Adam Johnson (who plays Thane) during the action sequences, due to him being captured in the beginning of the film, and the film is actually a quest to save him. A very determined character, Betylla, is introduced in this film, wonderfully portrayed by Philip Brodie. The evil inside Marek surfaces more regularly as the series continues, again very well played by Melanie Stone. This was yet another great action adventure film.

Two more of these to go. Kevin Sorbo who you may know from Hercules (and/or maybe from his insane tweets) is one of the bigger stars in one these I've seen. Although some might argue if we should call him a star. He had a great TV show let's leave it at that. All that aside, you have to be a fan of Science Fiction movies. The effects are ok for a low budget movie, I would not rate the acting too much ... but I've seen way worse than this for sure. The two part story here worked quite nicely - but again, you have to suspend your disbelief and be a fan ... this was the best of the three I've seen yet ... which isn't saying too much, but something I reckon.
