In Medieval, Ben Foster turns the story of a real-life Czech military commander into a blunt instrument
-esque intrigue will similarly be disappointed by the film’s strangely obtuse depiction of medieval European politics. It’s unclear whetherhopes to appeal to hardcore history buffs, relying upon Katherine and Žižka’s stories to inject emotional beats, or it’s simply inept at communicating the relationships that drive the film.
The battles also demonstrate the tactical brilliance—smokescreens and surprise defenses—that made Žižka such a renowned commander. It’s a shame that these sequences occur relatively infrequently, since their inventiveness could make the perfunctory human drama almost forgivable.Unfortunately, however, Jákl’s film is precisely as generic as its title would suggest, and what little there is to recommend is buried under a mountain of tedium.
