I'm not gonna get too spoilery here, but the broad strokes of every season of Last Kingdom seemed awfully similar and Uhtred always seemed to end up about where he started.

I didn't watch the movie -- maybe that would've helped provide an actual path forward for me. But it just felt repetitive after a bit.
Right, but Uhtred getting called assling consistently is wildly hilarious.

The movie is pretty decent. Repetitiveness would be less worrisome than plot armor stuff.

The movie is decent enough. Well worth the time.
