M. Mecanik et les Templiers

Most of reviews here are written by disappointed 40+ Poles who are biased by the original book and a tv series that aired a half century ago.

The truth is, that if viewer has no such point of reference, meaning a pretty much everybody else, he'll get a decent movie. I especially liked the camera shots, the way they present locations in country side, castles or even communist era vehicles. There's a lot of action so it's hard to be bored.

Yes, the characters are rather shallow, rheir actiona and plot sometimes make little or no sense, bit overall I can't say that watching this movie was a waste of time.

And last, but not least, I'm 40+ Polish, who read the book and watched the original show but when I quit comparing them to this new Netflix production and put frustrations aside, I can easily rate this movie as 6/10.
