Where “Seven Kings Must Die” is most interesting, however, is in its approach to religion, sexuality and culture. While it’s tempting to see our current era as unprecedented in its social blending of diverse faiths and identities, early medieval England gives contemporary Western society a run for its money in this respect.
When all the dust settles, The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die is a flawed yet fitting finale that serves as a send-off to Uhtred of Bebbanburg and the bloody life he did everything to find a way clear of.

At last Netflix revival. First movie that shows us how **** are unpredictable and dangerous. Masterpiece!

Giving it a 10 honestly just because some snowflake gave it a 0 crying about it being woke. Perfectly balanced.

Though “Seven Kings Must Die” suffers some from the gray palette, dim lighting and general somberness that weighs heavy on a lot of modern television, the movie delivers viscerally exciting fight scenes and a strong sense of what life was like in an ancient, unsettled world.
There’s a ton of plot crammed tightly into the running time, but director Edward Bazalgette manages the storytelling efficiently, helped by the display of place names at the beginning of each scene explaining which castle we’re at now, as well as how it was known in 900-something, and the name it goes by now.
As a stand-alone film, this one has about four kings too many to be wholly engaging.
The compositions lack clarity, the score of undulating voices is comically clichéd and the visual effects are a dingy, nauseating mess. There are no stakes in a film that not only takes seven royal lives — it snatches several brain cells with them.
Absolutely amazing. The best ending to a TV series I have ever seen. I look forward to rewatching all of the episodes without having to wait in between seasons.

While I loved the series The Last Kingdom, I fell a bit on the fence about this movie. The plot moved at such breakneck speed I nearly got whiplash. However, I know the plot needed to be condensed to fit a 2-hour-long feature. The ending of the series was such a great wrap-up to the ending of Uhtred's story, that I'm not so sure that this movie was ever needed. I do like that a lot of the actors reprised their roles. Overall I would say that the movie is not great, not terrible just average. P.S. Netflix please learn when a movie is needed to complete a TV series, and when it is not needed. It would be much appreciated.

Did not enjoy this all that much which is a shame considering how strong the show was. Personally, I don't think it should have even been made.

Absolutely love the series up until this movie, but this was a total mess.
There's absolutely no pacing, the plot and new characters are mostly a mess, and it just goes out with a whimper. Disappointing, pretty much from start to finish.
