Excellent but underrated film

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Richard Dutcher who did some good films regarding contemporary Mormon life came up very short with Templar Nation which was his effort to imitate the two National Treasure films.According to this movie we should forget what we learned there about the Knights Templar and how they survived in secret and left an enormous treasure in the bowels of lower Manhattan. What really happened is that they made it all the way out to Utah and set up shop there after making an alliance with the local Indians.What I was expecting and it didn't happen was that this would be an explanation for the lack of archaeological evidence for Joseph Smith's vision about a civilization that disappeared in North America. Something the LDS church has been very weak on. But Dutcher did not give us that.What he did give us was a vision of what and how a Mitt Romney could capture the presidency. Mormons in fact can be Templars and can make the best ones.All this is laced with Dutcher as father having a lot of issues with son Joseph James as they go on the dig for the Templar treasure. And of course those people who forced the Templars underground in medieval times are still on the hunt for them. They're Catholics you know. Dutcher came up very short with this LDS ripoff of National Treasure.

Templar NationI 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.

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.

I checked IMDb before I started to watch this movie, the rating was 5.9, seriously? This is the worst movie I have ever seen.I have to be honest. I watch a lot of Syfy and that being said I know bad movie. Face it Syfy original movies are some of the worst out there.The only good thing about this movie is that they only wasted $300,000 to make it. Where they spent that much I have no idea, there's no FX, fighting choreography is lousy, maybe that was Eric Estrada's salary.The dialog is absolutely horrific even if they had a decent actor to deliver it.I have seen grade school plays with more believable acting. It may have been a decent storyline, but quite frankly, I couldn't make it through the first half of the movie. I just hate it that I wasted and hour of my life watching this drivel. You have been warned, don't waste your time.
