- Kiz8. oktober 2025One of the strangest adventure films of all time. It makes no sense, the plot is derivative, the SFX are atrocious, the acting is subpar... But god do I love it. With an incredible score by James Horner and a lot of heart, they tried their best with this one. Also Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane are in it. 0/10 for the movie, but 10/10 for the fun.

- EnochLight21. september 2025Look—let’s not dance around it: Krull is basically what happens when Star Wars crashes headfirst into The Lord of the Rings after a few too many pints. And honestly? That’s freakin’ awesome. Back in 1983, if you were a kid (or even a slightly overgrown one), this movie was pure magic. I distinctly remember leaving the theater buzzing with excitement and immediately trying to track down a glaive replica. Spoiler alert: no such thing existed in stores at the time, which is a crime against fandom. But hey, when a movie makes you want to wield a five-bladed interdimensional boomerang of destiny, you know it’s doing something right. Full disclosure: I eventually got my glaive 25 years later, thanks to the brilliant artistry of a close friend (Steve - you rock, dude). The cast is shockingly good, with real chemistry that elevates the fantastical nonsense into something you buy into. And then there’s James Horner’s thunderous score—sure, some of it sounds like he raided his old Wrath of Khan notebook, but it works so well you just nod along and say, “Yes maestro, play it again.” The cinematography is gorgeous: sweeping landscapes, eerie otherworldly vibes, and yes, the studio sets can look a little… foam-rubbery. But the sheer ambition is undeniable. On modern 4K UHD, the film has never looked better—film grain lovingly intact (seriously, James Cameron, take notes)—and it may actually look sharper today than it did in theaters four decades ago. If you like your fantasy with a side of cosmic weirdness, Krull absolutely belongs in your collection. It’s part fairy tale, part space opera, part fever dream—and somehow it works. Fun production bits for the trivia goblins among us: Ken Marshall (Colwyn) later popped up in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine as the delightfully complicated Michael Eddington. Lysette Anthony (Princess Lyssa) became a music video staple in the ‘80s, including Depeche Mode’s “I Feel You” in 1993 (and yes, she looked every bit the fantasy heroine there, too). A young Liam Neeson appears in one of his earliest film roles, years before he discovered his “particular set of skills.” Robbie Coltrane is also here, pre-Hagrid, and was so early in his career that his voice was dubbed over in the final cut. The infamous glaive itself? Despite being the ultimate fantasy weapon, it barely gets used in the movie—a creative choice that’s baffled fans for decades and fueled countless “what if” conversations. Bottom line: Krull was big, weird, ambitious, and way ahead of its time. And four decades later, it still holds up like a cult classic champ. I freak'n love it.
- Richard8. august 2025Krull is one of those films that got shrugged off when it first hit theaters, dismissed as a muddled mashup of sci-fi and fantasy. But for those of us who caught it on TV, wide eyed and curious, it was unforgettable. And owning it on DVD later felt like reclaiming something that always deserved better. The story is classic quest: Prince Colwyn must rescue his bride from an alien fortress that literally teleports across the planet. But the world of Krull is anything but typical. It’s filled with Cyclopses, changelings, fire mares and of course, the Glaive. That five-bladed boomerang isn’t just a weapon; it’s a symbol of how bold and weird this movie dared to be. James Horner’s score soars, even if it borrows from his Wrath of Khan playbook. The outdoor cinematography gives the film a mythic scale and the cast, featuring early turns from Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane, brings surprising heart to the high fantasy chaos. Yes, the pacing stumbles. Yes, some of the studio sets feel like foam and fog machines. But Krull has soul. It’s earnest, ambitious, and brimming with the kind of handcrafted charm that defined early ’80s genre cinema. Krull is not a masterpiece, but it’s a cult classic worth revisiting, especially if you’re drawn to retro fantasy, quirky world building, and the kind of earnest storytelling that defined early '80s cinema. Watch it for the Glaive, stay for the nostalgia.
