Very good origins story of the modern Arthur & Merlin tales. Considering the budget a job well done and entertaining throughout. Good to see a film relying on the story and characters rather than emdless special effects.

"Arthur & Merlin" is a 100-minute fantasy film from the United Kingdom and as a consequence this is of course in the English language. This one runs for 100 minutes (without credits) and was directed and co-written by Marco van Belle, certainly his most known work so far, but then again he has not been too prolific yet in his career. The title already tells us that the film focuses on two characters that have appeared in film many times already. I keep reading that this one here is a low budget production, but honestly, it was not that visible during most of the film. Costumes and sets are solid and if there was any point where you could actually see it, then this would be the acting which wasn't that great and there were one or two moments when it had a touch of a high school / college play production. Anyway, I also think that the film is a bit too long for its own good as some sequences and scenes do not feel that important or relevant and I'd have been perfectly fine with an 80-minute film here. No need to stuff it and drag it any further/longer. But like I already said, there were also some okay components here. I think some of these also have to do with the general story though as the characters are simply epic and it's not really an achievement by van Belle or any of the actors or anybody else working on this project. This is also why in terms of the creativity and quality of the overall outcome, there is simply not enough good to let me really recommend this. I give it a thumbs-down and suggest you watch something else instead unless you really care about this old Arthur/Merlin saga. Oh well, on the other hand, maybe then you especially should not see it. Your choice.

After wasting my time watching this, I can say this is the worst movie I have watched ever. There is no Arthur nor Merlin in the whole movie, so the title is a big lie. All elements are bad including the weak story, acting, direction, special effects and picture. The weakness obviously appears in the materials and clothes, scenes, editing and movement from one scene to the other which humiliated the story. I couldn't imagine what happened in the minds of this movie's makers to introduce a bad work about two characters Arthfael (warrior) and Myrridin (wizard) after the famous fantastic series MERLIN and what they gained from using a fake title for their work. It didn't meet the minimum of my expectations. It is a bad memory and please don't bother watching it. If there is a rating with minus, I would give it -10.

This low-budget, independent fantasy epic is without a doubt one of the greatest films ever made. The story has been adapted from Celtic legend, and retains all the excitement and intrigue in the original lore. It follows hero Arthfael (Baker) and wizard Myrrdin (Butler) on their quest to bring down the evil Aberthol (Cooke). Safe to say, their journey is not entirely plain sailing, but Baker conquers all problems with the gravitas of the legendary hero he is playing. For a low-budget flick, some of the cinematic work is marvellous, although they were certainly helped by some gorgeous filming locations. Alongside the aforementioned Baker, the acting highlight came from Barbara Dabson as Young Ward. She had a small amount of film time, but I can certainly see a great future for the young actress. Overall, a brilliant film of which all involved should be proud.
