Summary: 5 Stars
This is literally Xena's birth, both as a character and as a new person. It is how we see her for the very first time, and this time she is evil. In her own tv-series we have seen little from har evil past, but it felt so close you could smell it. Here we see what she was like. And it is everything you ever dreamed of. Lucy Lawless does an excellent job in luring Iolaus to fall in love with her and betray Hercules. She almost get's him to kill Hercules, but he regains his sanity just in time to see what's going on.In the gauntlet we see her first step towards the new life. She saves a child from being slaughtered, and as a concequense she is betrayed by her own army. She has to walk the gauntlet, and nearly dies. But on the other side we see a redeamed and newborned woman. She isn't good yet, but in many ways their betrayal has caused her to become another person. Xena meets Hercules which she again tries to kill, but he disarms her and leaves her lying on the ground. He asks her to join them in the fight for good, but she refuses. Later she reconsiders and saves Hercules and Iolaus from getting slayed. She joins them. Of course Hercules falls in love with her, but they decide to go seperate ways. She in order to find herself, and to find a new purpose in life. But this time it is not a purpose like the one in destiny, namely death. She decides to try and do good, one deed at a time, to try and redeam her past actions. That's the woman we first meet in the series.
After having seen these series I understood Xena even better. So if you're a hardcore nutball like myself, you have to see this. If not, see it anyway. The acting is great, especially from Lucy Lawless and Michael Hurst. It is great action with a touch of sci-fi. For short a must see for everyone who likes action and drama!
Movie Review: Before Redemption
Summary: 5 Stars
If anyone has followed the Xena series at all, these 3 videos are a must. Seeing Xena before her trip to redemption with Gabrielle, watching the change as she goes from ultimate evil to the Warrior Princess we came to love, the darkness blending into light. Don't pass these up, these are the true legacy, the beginning of Xena.Movie Review: Great to see the origin
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this on TV and loved it. I thought that all three are very good. Seeing this was exciting for me because I watched her series first. Even if you already know about good Xena it is still very interesting. Some people say the 3rd part is corny, I don't agree. You see that Xena is not completely inhuman. In the original script she died in the end so thats where the "Confess my true feelings unless I die fighting Darfus" came from.P.S. There is a lot of interesting insight in the offical book that goes with this triology.
P.P.S. Herc deserves to fall in love again so I don't think it is corny.
Movie Review: Entertaining
Summary: 5 Stars
The bad guys are always more appealing than the good guys. This is why the evil Xena, Conqueror of Nations, is more entertaining to watch than the reformed (or, I should say, reforming) Xena, Warrior Princess. This shows the beginning of her rejection of her evil ways with Hercules' help. Of course, in "The Warrior Princess" there is none of this. But events in "The Gauntlet" lead her to rethink her life and ways, leading to redemption in "The Unchained Heart". It's fun to see her as evil in "The Warrior Princess", but, still the consummate warrior, begin to see the error of her ways in "The Gauntlet." "The Unchained Heart" is a bit of a disappointment in that it is the episode where Xena repents. At the end she hits the road on a mission to redeem herself for her past deeds. The episode was still enjoyable, for all that it was a lead-in to her own series. Entertaining.Movie Review: How a Gauntlet Unchained a Warrior Princess' Heart
Summary: 5 Stars
In this delicious trilogy of unterror, we see the beginning of the end of Xena,Conquerer of Nations.Thus, the Warrior Princess is born.In an all-too-predictable plot of evil turning good,we are introduced to Xena and her evil ways,how Hercules helped her see the error of her ways,and why she now chooses to fight on the side of the angels(instead of with the angels if she continued her misdeeds.)'Tis a must for all Xena fans,as you see her origin somewhat,and if you currently watch the series, it's a fine example of a character having evolved.
