The Portal: A Journey Through Time" is a film that had potential but ultimately falls short in several key areas. While the movie does end on a positive note and leaves the door open for a sequel, which could explore the story further, the overall experience is marred by significant flaws. One of the few highlights is the medieval atmosphere, which is well-captured and helps immerse the viewer in the time period. However, this is where most of the positive aspects end. The acting throughout the film is subpar, making it difficult to connect with the characters or care about their fates. The storyline itself is riddled with gaps, leaving the audience confused and questioning the logic behind certain events. Important plot points are glossed over, which makes the narrative feel monotonous and dull. While the main character shows some development, the supporting characters are poorly developed, leading to a lack of depth in their interactions and contributions to the story. The villains, in particular, are extremely weak and pose little to no real threat, which diminishes the tension and stakes that should be present in a film like this. Additionally, several aspects of the story are left unexplained, which, rather than adding mystery, makes the film seem unrealistic and hard to believe. These shortcomings overshadow what could have been an intriguing and engaging experience. In conclusion, despite a good ending and a promising medieval setting, "The Portal: A Journey Through Time" is ultimately a disappointing watch, hindered by poor performances, a flawed narrative, and underwhelming character development.

This film is an acceptable and cute children's film. However, its weaknesses are several. The film is too slow and boring and the plot holes and inconsistencies are numerous and make the film largely without any purpose. To criticize is also the evolution of the protagonist who is too fast at the expense of the overall slowness of the film.

A good watchable Ukrainian fantasy movie. It is about a schoolboy who fears heights who gets sucked into some sort of vortex and is transported thousands of years into the past. the acting was very good and I was quite impressed with the fight scenes which was very good. It did not look like the special effects was cheap either. And to top it all it had a good storyline

The only problem was the sub titles which were a bit hit and miss in places as in some parts it is at a good speed that you can read it , then in other parts the sub title just flew past.

Unfortunately, watching a movie with subtitles is never optimal. This is a decent fantasy story that has fairly solid acting. The movie gets a bit goofy in parts, but overall the script is not bad.

Time travel ... one of the biggest fantasies human kind has. Not sure how it would work (though the multiple universe thing sounds the closest one to make actual sense), but until that becomes a reality ... if ever that is - we have movies like this one to enjoy.

It's a fantasy movie that brings us back into a different world ... with certain innovations from the present day ... which therefor almost make it look like a larp event. Interesting and introguing, the movie has also one of the things I never will understand: not Russian/Ukrainian dialog is being dubbed ... over the real voice, so you hear the dialog twice or overlapped ... it's a pet peeve but maybe you are bugged out about this too. A fun ride, for those willing to take it.
