By Gimly

Boudica. One of the few women of yore who is actually famous as a fighter. Feared and respected, courageous battler. A genuine warrior queen. I finally come across a movie about her, and what do I get? A shitty romance movie. Boudica's in like three fights, and she gets rescued by a man in two of them, and almost dies in one on one combat in the other. Sorely bloody disappointed. Even if I didn't just have expectations that weren't met (expectations I had because of the deliberately misleading promotion), even going in blind, knowing nothing about Boudica, having no expectations at all, forget any idea of what could have been different, _Rise of the Warrior Queen_ is still **bad**. _Final rating:★ - Of no value. Avoid at all costs._
