Legendary

About This Movie

So, there's this film, Legendary, which dropped in 2024. It follows a squire who, in a moment of crisis, ditches the battlefield and stumbles into this enchanting encounter with a dryad. The tone is a curious mix of somber and magical, and you really feel the weight of the character’s choices. The pacing has these highs and lows that reflect his internal struggle beautifully. Practical effects are quite impressive, especially in how the forest and the dryad are brought to life. It's not your run-of-the-mill fantasy; there's a certain depth to the emotional landscape the characters navigate, making it a distinctive watch. The performances are solid too, with a rawness that grounds the fantastical elements.
