Krull Summary
MPAA Rating: PG
Director: Peter Yates
Genres: Action, Adventure, Fantasy
Rating:
Meant to be a whimsical sword-and-sorcery film about a prince out to save his princess from the jaws of the Beast, Krull has enough scenes borrowed from blockbuster predecessors (Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Robin_Hood, Star_Wars) and is gentle enough to be rather derivative, ordinary fare. Prince Colwyn (Ken_Marshall) has inherited a kingdom under siege by the evil Beast, and not only has to rid the land of the monster, but he has to rescue his bride Lyssa (Lysette_Anthony) from the Beast's clutches as well. In his magical land, horses can sometimes fly, medieval castles can harbor weapons that light up, and before he can defeat the Beast, the prince has to get his hands on the glaive (French for "double-edged sword"), a razor-sharp, magical weapon capable of killing the monster. One of the more notable aspects of Krull is that a 30-year old Liam_Neeson plays the bit part of Kegan, in only his third full-length feature film. Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
