Ellen E Jones Guardian 11/24/2020
1/5
It's a dull historical action drama that is in desperate need of some gratuitous sex or violence to liven up its near two-hour running time. Go to Full Review Andrew Murray The Upcoming 05/04/2021
2/5
Fall of a Kingdom looks like any other historical drama. But without the punch and dedication desperately needed to meet the filmmaker's admirable ambition, the action and drama fall flat before the plot can properly get underway. Go to Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue 10/09/2020
You've seen many aspects of this Ukrainian battle epic handled better elsewhere, although like its characters, the film makes a valiant effort considering its limited resources. Go to Full Review Frank Swietek One Guy's Opinion 10/01/2020
C
Hardly of David Lean quality, but if you're willing to accept a hokey medieval adventure of the sort Hollywood used to turn out in the fifties, it might provide a fairly agreeable time. Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com 10/01/2020
B
An appealing handle on B-movie action and emotional content, while the performances find the vibe of the production with refreshing ease, supporting the effort with enjoyable thespian intensity. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 09/30/2020
3/5
There's a different energy amongst those cast members who have grown up with the story and, given the local prestige of the film, there's impressive talent among their ranks. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

검의길 귀 Jul 8 In world history, the army of the Great Mongol Empire, which was the strongest military force in world history, conquered the world and even invaded and subjugated Europe. The film The Rising Hawk is set in the Middle Ages, when the Mongol Empire boasting the world’s most powerful military invaded and conquered Eastern and Central Europe. The protagonists are the brave European warriors who resisted the invasion of the world’s strongest Mongol Empire to the very end. Although Europe fell into colonial subjugation under the Mongol Empire, the European warriors who fought desperately against the Mongol Empire invasion are recorded as some of the greatest warriors in all of world history.

See more 11/03/2024 where’s the rising hawk two huh See more nathan A 10/11/2024 will there be a hawk 2 uh? See more Stan G 01/15/2024 Based on a novel from 1883, the concept and historical time period were very interesting. Cinematography was also often gorgeous in the Carpathian Mountains. Production values, not so much, with sometimes wooden dialogue and some ill-lit scenes, here it gets maybe a B- or C+ versus A- for the other. The physics regarding the flood needed more exploration. See more Frederick J 08/27/2023 Easy to watch historical adventure movie , enough to keep you watching till the end and likeable characters and great villains. See more Read all reviews
