Krull
A prince and a fellowship of companions set out to rescue his bride from a fortress of alien invaders who have arrived on their home planet.
Critics Sentiment
Colwyn retrieves the magical Glaive from the mountain cave
Darro is killed by Slayers and Menno dies in quicksand
The film surges from its plodding swamp sequence (5.0) to the exciting Fire Mares ride (7.5), representing the biggest positive sentiment shift as the quest gains momentum toward its climax.
Critics found Krull to be a derivative but reasonably entertaining fantasy adventure that succeeds on production values and charm despite weak plotting and acting. The film starts strong with impressive visuals, sags significantly in its middle act with plodding sequences and perfunctory character deaths, then recovers with memorable set pieces like the Fire Mares and a satisfying if formulaic finale. Most reviewers acknowledged its obvious Star Wars influences while appreciating its ambitious scope and unique elements like the Glaive weapon.
