Gloomy film about prosecution of the people suspected of sorcery, and in particular women, whose external data, a kind of activity, or character traits, according to inquisitors, could have magic definition. It was cruel time when people executed in thousand, or doomed to certain death, for the reasons seeming to us absurd. Nevertheless, the mighty of this world, in the person hardly probable not all-powerful clergy, once believed that any misfortunes, from a rain to epidemic, it is possible to send magical spells. Here and in a film, time when in Europe the plague raged is described, and fault have made to witches. I want to notice that this mass disease, make-up artists have tried on on actors is masterful, having transformed them hardly probable not in monsters. To people with a weak vestibular mechanism and nerves it to look not necessarily.
The film begins with the epic fight which characters are Nicolas and Ron, then, one more, both still, and still … while at last heroes don't understand that for the sake of church, with a name of god on lips, they exterminate its children. Thus, the army has lost the most experienced fighters, but in the first city, them have accused of desertion and have put in prison. Support of a young witch for proceeding in far abbey became alternative of the death penalty of them. Then all also begins.
And all isn't bad enough: you sympathize with heroes, you are surprised, sometimes you shudder, but you look, you put forward standard versions of an outcome, and invariably there is a desire to watch to the end. But here the end … has a little disappointed, though hasn't coincided with assumptions.
Yes, this film hardly will sink down to someone in soul and becomes favourite, but is quite capable to meet with approval if the gloomy foggy Middle Ages impose you as a place of succession of events and you aren't indifferent to a fantasy.
