Templar Nation

I usually like these kinds of films which plays on the mysteries surrounding the knights templar. I also like to think that I tend to accept many fallacies in films, as long as the concept and the movies as a whole is good. This movie, however, is horrible. I am sorry, but it really is. The plot is idiotic, where it is really hard to accept the arguments presented as the movie progresses. The acting is stiff and ill-performed by mediocre actors at best.

I watched the whole movie just because I love the knights templar and I wanted to know what the treasure at the end would turn out to be. BIG mistake, I want my time wasted back. Most stupid ending in a long time.

If you still choose to watch this movie after reading my review, do so at your own peril.

If you like Templar lore, then it's not bad. The acting/actors is pretty bad. My how Eric Estrada has aged. I had nothing better to do so I stayed with it just to see what happened. I liked the overall concept of the story. Would have made a pretty good movie with a bigger budget. Instead of "The End" we get "To be continued". I'd like to see where the story goes. I hope they made enough money to do a better job next time. Eric playing De Molay wasn't bad, the rest of the cast was pretty bad, the attempt at humor was awful. They could have at least coached the native American to at least kinda sound native. Nice try, but put more effort in the next one...if there is one.

Templar Nation

I really like the story from the beginning to the end, it takes a couple of twists and turns. Don't expect to much it is a 300'000$ movie which is easy to watch I don't even know if it's based on real myths or just made up probably the later one.

The only real minus about this movie are the special effects and somewhat bad fighting scenes.

The plus is that it could easily be you or me in this movie and it makes it more lively and appealing because you want to be part of it.

It is a movie to relax, sit back and enjoy without having to think to much.

This is surely the front-runner for worst picture ever made. The storyline appears to have been concocted by a five-year old on lsd and as for the cast.. the actors guild should investigate how they ever got cards,an amateur church play would have provided a better performance. The sets looked as if they had been made with gaffer tape,cardboard and crayons and would have been better suited to a pre school television show. The action??? Scenes were laughable and disjointed and would not have been out of place in a school playground. How this managed a rating of 4.1 I do not know unless the cast were rating it. A total of 38 ratings and not one review come on. I really wish I could find something positive to say but unfortunately there is nothing. At the end it says "to be continued"I sincerely hope not. Low budget should not mean poor value

So I watched this movie after a discussion with my family about the Knights Templar and it got me in the mood to watch a movie about the Templar and this one came up.

I will put it out front that yes the acting is sub par, the FX are non-existent, and the choreography was lousy but here is the thing, the value was right up my alley - FREE on Vudu.

The story line actually held a great potential and I feel that if more money could have been invested it would have been a great movie, NOT ACADEMY AWARD great but at least one that would have been memorable.

I does hurt my feelings when I see so many people give this movie 1/10 stars. Somebody did say that they know bad because they have seen many made for SyFy movies and this was made them look good, I disagree. I felt that this was on the same caliber as many of the SyFy movies.

Ultimately, I give is a soft 6 stars based up a good story and the continuously moving story. Many people will disagree with me and that is fine I just feel that the movie should be given a shot, just don't expect big Hollywood effects.
