I've seen the first movie and I loved it. I love this one even more.
Thee are many things about the movie that can only be understood if you're Russian. But not only that. The movie is great for all kind of people and great on many levels: the direction, the cast, the acting, the make up, the costumes, the 'message' and the morals. The writing may be a bit simplistic, still it's no worse than your average superhero story. Better, I dare say. The visual effects may be not the best in the world, still they are good enough. The overall style may be a bit too much of a sweet 'fairy-tale', but a fairy-tale is what this movie is, basically!
My biggest praise goes to the director who managed to tell this visual story so wonderfully. And my second biggest praise goes to the actors. Ivan Khorinyak managed to pull out the most truthful fairy-tale Ivan character: 'Ivan the fool' who is also the hero at the same time. Baba Yaga played by the famous and loved Elena Yakovleva is the best new vision of this traditional character since... 70-s, I believe? Mila Sivatskaya as Vasilisa is absolutely lovely, the very symbol of Slavic beauty. Others are also wonderful.
Again, I will repeat: this "Last warrior" is the best thing that happened to the Russian cinema in decades! The triumphant comeback of the 'fairy-tale movie'. I love it!

Absolutely lovely. Even better than part one.
A Fine Fantasy Sequel
This is a sequel to 2017 movie 'The Last Warrior'; also called 'The Last Warrior 2'. The movie is full with fun and adventure. It nicely portrays some of the regional folklore characters. A production of Russian chapter of Walt Disney, the movie takes us along a wonderful adventure to exotic places.
We are transported into the modern world as well on occasions during the movie. This pattern is not new to this movie; it however, disrupts your fun when you are immersed in a fantasy world. Touch of comedy is prevalent throughout the movie, which increases fun and interest altogether.
A bit poorly rated from my perspective and needs to be recognized accordingly.
Nice film
Well, the third part of the trilogy about the Last Hero is ripe. Fashionable emotions, gestalt closed. It seems like. But... The first film was very good. And cheerful, and funny, and for all that, not stupid at all. The characters were alive too. And the adventures are well written. That's why the story is a success.
The second film was weaker, they slightly exploited the theme of all sorts of games that had already died out on the Western cinema slope (but our current young filmmakers are epigones and enthusiastic barbarians, prostrate before shining Hollywood falling with delight). Nevertheless, the fairy tale was a success even then.
