Review - Merlin: "The Moment of Truth" (1.10)

Due to a missed time line on my part....This review did not make BSC Print. I posted it here so everyone may still read it.

When Merlin's home village is taken over by ruthless raiders he risks the exposure of his magical abilities to Arthur, who along with Gwen and Morgana have tagged along to help the young wizard. The long awaited back-story on this rebooted Merlin character has arrived. I have been waiting with anticipation for this episode, and while it was fun to watch, it did however leave me a bit disappointed as well.

Upon starting this episode I was pleased to see that someone else knows about Merlin's gift besides his mother and Gaius. The addition of Merlin's childhood friend was a nice plot element and I liked the fact that Will (Merlin's childhood friend) was the son of a fallen knight. I began to think their relationship could very well mirror a future friendship that Arthur and Merlin could share. This episode also put Merlin’s resolve to the test, because he had to choose between exposure of his gift to his friends from Camelot or saving his village. I was curious about the young wizard's origin and home village, so seeing him not only go there but fight for it was a real treat.

I do however have a few complaints on this episode. First, there was no real reason offered up as to why Merlin left his village. We learn that his village is not under Uther's realm so the threat of being executed for sorcery use seems doubtful. This raises the question, why go to Camelot and take on the risk of execution? Merlin tells Will he left the village because he did not “fit in” a rather weak point on the writer's back story. I know that Arthur and Merlin must be together, but I think the writers could have come up with something better than “teen angst” being the cause of Merlin’s departure to Camelot. The writing thus far has been great, maybe I had just set my expectations too high for Merlin’s origin, or not all has been revealed just yet. Secondly, the battle scenes during this episode were a bit lame in stark contrast to such episodes as “Merlin: Valiant (1.2)”. I think the final confrontation with the raiders came off as a bit too “B-Movie” like and the dust devil Merlin creates was a bit unimpressive. Since we have seen him set things on fire and wield a magical staff with deadly results, I expected more of a “flash”.

As the episode ends we see a dying Will take the fall for Merlin’s use of sorcery and keep the young warlock’s secret safe. I am glad it went that way because I was almost sure Will was going to expose Merlin out of jealousy because of his new friendship with Arthur. This was a good episode but did not turn out to be a step toward an exciting season finale which is on its way in only one more episode. I am a big fan of this show and I was expecting a build up by now since there are only twelve episodes in the first season. I have my eyes set on the next episode with the hope that things are about to get explosive and the wish that Merlin does not lose its magical appeal.

101 Serialized Sonnets # 6



Hateful Conversation

 
Let’s create a great disease,

Something that has no cure,

And kill whomever we please,

The tainted or perhaps the pure,

We shall not spare anyone,

From lofty places to far below,

Now Hate was far from done,

All his lurid thought I would know,

The further words of detestation,

It spoke of things that promised to be foul,

This was not a pleasant conversation,

As I listened to it all, it made me scowl,

When quite finished Hate grinned bright,

Its pompous lips the color of endless night.

101 Serialized Sonnets # 5



Simple Steven

 

Simple Steven did as he was told,

He lived and dreamt like everyone,

That never sought to be bold,

Cause rebellion was not fun,

So Steven worn a blissful and stupid grin,

Like all the other society clones,

They all lived in fear of sin,

Like religiously righteous drones,

The one day Steven did die,

He fell dead on a busy street,

No one even batted an eye,

Though his gravestone did entreat,

Here lies the man, who thought,

Should I believe what I was a taught?

Reaper

 

He won’t knock on your door,

To make a humble house call,

He won’t see you at the store,

Or leave a note on your wall,

He won’t meet you at the bar,

Or invite you over for tea,

You won’t see him in your car,

Or guest staring on TV,

So even if you try with all your might,

With great care to avoid death,

You are never far from his sight,

So don't even hold your breath,

The reaper always gets his man,

Cause death is his constructed plan.

101 Serialized Sonnets # 3



Those I have met

 

I knew a girl named Alice,
But she left for Wonderland,
I knew a pirate consumed by malice,
Because he had a hook for a hand,
I met a strange and brilliant surgeon,
At Castle Frankenstein he longed to create life,
I also met a very suspicious Injun,
Who tried to kill a boy named Tom with a knife,
I met a hungry boy named Oliver,
That simply just asked for more,
I met a great king named Arthur,
That fought with his son to settle a score,
 That is everyone I met on the adventures I took,
You can meet them too if you just read a book.

101 Serialized Sonnets #2



Zoo Manners

 

The Elephant was known to read,

Shakespeare and Socrates,
 He loved to drink his warm mead,
And to listen to musical tragedies, 
He would answer almost any question,

From guests who did visit at the zoo,

And he would also proudly mention,

That he was fond of the color blue,

Never has such a pachyderm, 
Sought such enlightenment,

He is quite the bookworm,

His book collection makes that evident,

So to insult him would be such a regret,
For an Elephant is also known to never forget.

101 Serialized Sonnets # 1



#101

 

I know there is a place,

Where strange things occur,

And evil does embrace,

What good will just inter,

Behind an unlocked door,

Waiting for the curious,

There is so much more,

And it will make you delirious,

All that is forbidden,

Every sin you could ever commit,

You shall never be forgiven,

Yet the pleasure, imagine it,

So go on over and do have fun,

It all lies behind the door marked #101.
