[B]Medieval (Hulu-2022) [/B]- I will watch almost any historical drama if I recognize anyone in the cast, so I gave this one a shot.  It is a Czech movie with Ben Foster, Michael Caine, Matthew Goode and some recognizable Europeans, based on part of the life of Jan Ziska, a Czech hero from the late middle ages.  It has a 72% fan rating but the critics don't like it at all.  It isn't as bad as the critics reviews, but it has some problems.  The middle of the movie is really hard to follow.  The characters seem to just be walking around the woods killing people, but clearly the plot is moving along, I am just not sure how.

On the plus side, Foster and Goode are excellent as they always are.  Roland Moller is good as Goode's henchman.  I like that it was a movie on a subject I had never heard of.  It was original, at least to Americans, and interesting.  The fight scenes were pretty good for the most part.  There is even a lion in the movie.

My biggest complaint is the lead actress, Sophie Lowe.  I can't even figure out what reaction she is trying to give in most scenes.  Her character is really important in the plot, but Lowe's acting is so bad that I am not even sure what the character is doing much of the time.
