Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Jake Horsburgh Highly enjoyed "The Gaelic King"! It's a really good film for everyone to watch, especially if you live in and around Scotland. I also found it amazing how far a small budget can stretch... The only slight issue I had (I can't tell if it was with the amazon video upload of the film or my TV..) was that from 08:34 to 13:33 there was a slight problem with the white balance but I think that it was actually on my TV. In conclusion, I thoroughly enjoyed this film!
s3276169 Having watched 10 minutes of this flick my one and only reaction was "oh dear".....In my opinion this really is an amateur effort.It reminds me of the sort of thing you might expect a volunteer dramatic society to put on for the oldies. That said, it would not matter how old I got I don't think I could sit through The Garlic King or Gaelic King or whatever this is supposed to be. My advice steer well clear. One out of ten from me.
laurie-232-113131 Firstly, when compared to other films in the indie/action/low budget genre, this is exceptional. It doesn't fall into the trap of pretending to be a Hollywood blockbuster, but accepts its limitations and works within them. The story is simple, but works well in its context, and is refreshingly satisfactory, though not at all deserving of a '15' rating (Interestingly my DVD copy has been rated a 12 by the IFCO- a much more appropriate audience) Also, it is really nice to see an good original score- makes a great change from the royalty-free tracks so often used! The beautiful Scottish countryside obviously inspired the producers, and seeing some of the shots you wonder why it isn't used more by higher budget movies. When compared to the larger genre, the film still holds up against criticism, especially in its story and the quality of the editing and score. The visual effects are not fantastic, but don't massively impact the overall watchability of the film. Certainly not a retelling of history, but an interesting interpretation of the few details known about the period.In many ways, a historical/fantasy action/adventure is an unlikely candidate for a budget production, but this film manages to pull it off.
Angela Great film really enjoyed watching it, few comments stating it's a low budget film etc and unknown actors and yes that is exactly what it is however the acting is great the effects are the best I've seen on a low budget film and the scenery of Scotland is just beautiful and the Scottish music just makes it even more beautiful... would recommend anyone to watch it.
