“I had low expectations to begin with, perhaps that made me a tad too grateful, but the film was a nice evening at the cinema – not something we get very often. Nice visuals, costumes and set are overall immersive, the music is good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt has weak points and material was obviously cut down, giving us some loose ends and lacking a little substance at times.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOn top of some scenes that just donu0026#39;t convince the viewer of charactersu0026#39; traits, making them feel rather shallow, there are a few awkward lines in some dialogues.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eKeeping this in mind, provided you are able to separate this from the traditional story, Hagen is an interesting, even rare character – who is humble and loyal, despite being competent.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe anti-hero trope has been done to death, this isnu0026#39;t any such story, whatever the synopsis tries to tell you. I would have loved a longer, more in-depth character study, but Hagen himself was intriguing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA good film, I would alter some things, but will definitely use the main character as inspiration for some project.”
