The final season is a worthy end to the series

It’s about Pebenberg, it’s all or nothing. The fort, whose name sounds like baby powder, is a magnificent board that stands on the rocks of northern Umbria as if the ancient gods themselves had cut down trees and pierced the trunks to the ground. By the end of the fourth season, Hero Uhdret has not yet received his birthright there. In the fifth and final round of the series on the medieval coexistence and conflict between the Danes and the Saxons on English soil, the sword-wielding warrior finally becomes the ruler of the North. Of course, he reintroduces himself as the old James Bond: “I’m Uhdret, Uhdret’s son.” Of course he repeats the key sentence of Bernard Cornwell’s novel adaptations: “Fate is everything!”

As a boy, Uhdred is betrayed not only by his uncle but also by his identity. As a hostage and adopted son of Viking Rockner, he has been torn between his Saxon roots and the Danish family for four seasons. Now, at the end of all the chapters, instead of continuing to serve other leaders, there is no other solution but to reconcile his two parts and stand up for himself. Yes, we’re back in the tenth century, and since Netflix took over Stephen Butcher’s historical series from the BBC, the past has been huge and vast.

In the tenth and final episode, the last dispute in the United Kingdom over the morally undeniable King Edward against the Peppenberg invaders under the Scottish King Constantine is much less a monument than the “Game of Thrones”. Wars.

Ten years later everything seems to be fine in the Uhdret world

It has been a habit for years for viewers to see that such images are often bloody. However, the makers of “Lost Kingdom” exaggerate the finale so that viewers feel embarrassed, causing deliberately broken peace issues in the East. People in Europe are actually dying, and suddenly the most severe depictions of violence are unimaginable.

After all, “The Last Kingdom” is a dramatic increase in the story of a self-search worth seeing in the final round. After feeling like ten years later, we meet Uhdret (Alexander Tramon) again in Rankorn, as the guardian of the borders of Mercia, and he and his followers make for the beloved, celibate princess Adelflate (Millie Brady).

Uhdred raised and defended Edelston (Caspar Griffiths), King Edward’s illegitimate son. And it has been a long time since he heard from his foster sister and adversary Prida (Emily Cox). “I will be your fall!” She had sworn to him before. The country has been quiet for years, and Uhdret’s daughter Stora (Ruby Hartley) is comfortable in York next to the Viking Siktriger (Esteen Sigurdsson), and everything could not be better.

Revenge and intrigue are in the air

But fate, after all, is an ugly traitor. “The air smells rotten,” Uhdred whispers at the start of the new season. Of course – that’s what both intrigue and betrayal look like. This is Prida, the symbol of the gods (volcanic eruption) in Iceland. Odin thinks now is the time for revenge, so six dragon boats set sail from the beautiful island of Prohibition. Sigtryggr’s brother Ragnall (the name sounds like “Rugenwald” in the series, so you might be thinking of sausage) proves that there is an unpredictable insidious cave behind his goofy behavior.

And don’t forget: King Edward’s father-in-law, the treacherous Lord Athelhelm (Adrian Schiller), wants to help his blood flow to the crown, and Jung first sends a murder squad to Athelston.

Many unforgettable moments are provided by the creators. Love is the climax, immortal characters die, and at least one of this season’s farewell scenes should have tissues in hand.

Unlike the final round of “Game of Thrones”, the audience’s expectations of “The Last Kingdom” were finally fulfilled. Netflix at Viking Service – Home of hilarious Norsemen and most recently Vikings’ home of the Vikings: Valhalla – A fantastic cast brings a satisfying cinematic story to a satisfying end. Uhtred’s new self – confidence and work ethic meanwhile causes a state of grief for the much-murdered King Edward, who may have been the subject of the “Seven Kings Must Die” film, which is due to be made later this year.

Uhtred son Uhtred in cinema? He definitely deserves it.
