Last Knights Ending Explained
Basically coming in a full circle, Last Knights is a one-liner revenge storyline we have watched for years and years. There is nothing much to this ending apart from wanting revenge. Even the plot of the film clearly hinted at it, and the movie saw it coming to perfect execution. Thus, leaving the audience having not much to think about, to be honest. Anyway, moving on, this how everything went down. Starting off in the beginning, Geza’s attempt to humiliate Bartock for not giving away a bribe is something that triggered him. This, in turn, led him to take action only to have more swords against him. Also, Bartock is going down with a death sentence. So, all this corruptive mess triggered Raiden as well. He executes the single perfect plan to end Geza’s reign by first trying to create an illusion of how he and Bartok’s army have lost hope. Raiden posed as a drunkard while Geza kept an eye on him. He acknowledges the threat Raiden can be. Once Geza realized Raiden is not a threat. That’s when Raiden brought his plan in motion. After a year of making blueprints, contacts, and connections about Geza’s whereabouts. He joined hands with his father-in-law. The alliance was just for showing off as an illusion. All Raiden wanted was his soldiers to quietly enter Geza’s place. The ending sequences saw Raiden’s army going head to head with Geza’s falling and breaking down slowly until they move in. At last, Raiden got closer to Geza but has to battle Ito, who has sworn to protect Geza. The fight sees Raiden coming on top and finally getting hands-on with Geza, who tries to defend himself only to fail and die at the hands of Raiden. Thus, in turn, reducing Bartok’s daughter and assuring the revenge is complete. The council calls in to deal with Raiden and Bartok taking their hand on Geza. Even the council believes whatever the decision they take, the crowd is happy after the army avenged Bartok’s death. So before the council could move on, Raiden steps in for execution, asking the other soldiers to be let go. We see a flashback of Raiden apologizing to Naomi and how her leaving became a part of Raiden’s plan. The movie ends with Raiden lowering his head for the execution.
