Boudica
Boudica is an innocent sixteen-year-old girl who is forced into an arranged marriage by her father, the leader of a Celtic Tribe. However, her mother is unsure, doing whatever it takes to protect her daughter; so much so that she takes Boudica and persuades her to flee the village and live in her childhood home, away from an arranged marriage and a miserable life.

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.
