This film has no features to shame for, it has correct script, acting, scenery, the visuality is acceptible. The story is dynamic, the sets are well built. Like 'Kincsem,' it is absolute watchable, but if it wasn't a hungarian movie, it wouldn't be interesting for me.
Unfortunately, it is precisely the portrayal of the main character that seems to me to be a weak point, at least after watching the first two episodes. Kádár Gellért's Hunyadi is the 'hero,' nothing more. Muscular, sober and handsome enough, a perfect fitness model, but he has no specific character traits, exciting identity, charisma, you can't feel the passion, obsession in him, nor erudition, nor brute force, like in Mel Gibson's Braveheart, for example. In the opening scene his parents are killed by the turks, ok, but for starting and motivation it is a little bit clichéd. Sex scenes are unnecessary, uninteresting, dull, there is nothing erotic in them. Torocsik Franciska is good, but not charismatic, Muratha Muslu is great, awesome in the role of a fearsome power.
So it is a correct movie, but won't be a cult film (as Controll, Argo, A tanú, for example).
