Movie Reviews of Cadfael - One Corpse Too Many
Movie Review: A Fine Interpretation
Summary: 4 Stars
If you've read the books, then this series will definitely appeal. It's a great interpretation of the Cadfael stories and there is plenty of attention to detail.
In particular, Abbot Radulfus, Prior Robert and Cadfael himself all have perfect castings.
The only downsides are that the relationship between Cadfael and Hugh doesn't really take on a life in this series - they tend to find themselves more at odds with each other than they do in the books and there are some very strange name and plot changes that deviate from the genius of the books.
If you can just ignore those details (or if you haven't read the books) then you'll love watching this.
