Phil Hoad Guardian 04/07/2025
3/5
With its sisyphean vibe and implacable mood, it also owes a fair bit to the Dark Souls video games; though it’s not a masterpiece on that level, it nevertheless has a grim self-conviction that grips despite its low-budget limitations. Go to Full Review
Jules Caldeira Film Inquiry 03/21/2025
A Knight’s War blends classic fantasy motifs and adds a dark, unique edge that’s visually gripping. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 02/23/2025
A Knight's War might satisfy viewers who like playing generic fantasy video games. Cinematically, the movie falls very short. The visuals are impressive for this low-budget film, but the performances and dialogue are flat and soulless. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
What impresses most is the way Ninaber and company do so much with so little...The production design, costumes, makeup, visual effects – it’s all a striking testament to the vision, vehemence, and virtuosity that drives the filmmaking. Go to Full Review
Nathaniel Muir AIPT 02/07/2025
A Knight’s War is an exciting fantasy adventure that is a much needed breath of fresh air. It does not try to reinvent the wheel because it does not have to. It delivers longtime fans exactly what they have been craving. Go to Full Review

3/5
This horror/fantasy mashup conjures up some gruesome delights, but often feels like the playing of a Dungeons & Dragons module -- and not a particularly original one. Go to Full Review

Claudio C @Claudio666 22h A Good Movie, Despite the Confusing Beginning (12,449 – 16 May 2026 – Claudio Carvalho) In the Middle Ages, the bastard knight Bhodie and his half-brother William are looking for The Chosen Avalon to fulfil a prophecy and save mankind. When Avalon is murdered, William stabs and kills Bhodie to rescue Avalon from the world of the dead. Brodie makes a deal with The Gate Keeper and teams up with Avalon to defeat three Lords and retrieve three stones that allow them to return to the world of the living. But their journey will not be easy. "A Knight's War" (2025) is a fantasy with a confusing beginning. However, with the development of the story, the viewer understands the plot. The dark cinematography, atmosphere, costumes and CGI are excellent. The way full of hatred that Avalon and Bodhie talk to each other is a weak point. The screenplay and pace could have been better but is satisfactory. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): "A Profecia de Um Guerreiro" ("The Prophecy of a Warrior") See more John K @Johnny356 Mar 24 I liked it! Despite some obvious plot gaps in the writing, I was invested in the characters and was impressed with the actors. Creative imagery and an interesting story overcome any shortcomings due to low budget for production. See more Steve N @RT96621217 Mar 23 This movie is worth watching. With a budget of $600,000, I can only imagine the potential with a much higher budget. Look forward and hope they make a sequel. See more Fast R @Gorgon Mar 22 Good Medieval character acting , good story , but it made me want for a sequel right after ending ! As it seems the movie was a set up for their characters in future adventures . Pity . See more Solomon K @Solidan Feb 1 Movie was gorgeous to look at and definitely a fun watch. It did feel a bit like a video game but the story and emotional aspects were compelling enough. See more Robert F @Robf25 Dec 8 Yes you can tell it's not a high budget movie, but it's not to far of in regards to effects, and what it lacks in budget it makes up for with original and compelling storyline. The whole good v evil theme is very well put together showing demonic tricks we all experience played out via characters. Honestly think this is a brilliant movie, would like a sequel!!
