Product description

Arn Magnusson is born in 1150, in Western Sweden. He grows up to become an educated young man and a skilled warrior and meets Cecilla, the love of his life. Then a cruel and jealous world forces them apart. Cecilia is imprisoned in a monastery. Arn is sent to the Holy Land as a Knight Templar, where war is raging between Christians and Muslims. Arn and Cecilia both have to struggle to survive, to learn how to confront evil and overcome physical hardship. Their painful separation causes their faith in God to waver - though not their faith in each other and their conviction that they will one day be reunited. When Arn returns home, he has to fight for his love and what has become his mission: to unite Sweden into one Kingdom.

Extended version is even better!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 October 2016

This is a great film and it seems to be historically accurate as well as entertaining. It has a strong story line, convincing romance and the action scenes are well handled. Best of all is the coverage of historical events in Sweden, which most English viewers (myself included) are largely unaware of.

Some viewers may be put off by the mixture of English and subtitled Swedish, Arabic and Latin in this film. I urge them not to be as it added a feeling of authenticity to me and we ought to be more keen to learn foreign languages in my country. I often find that European films are a breath of fresh air compared to what comes out of Hollywood nowadays so please don't let this discourage you.

It does suffer a little from a 'Christian bashing' attitude, especially in the Holy Land scenes, and it does seem a little slanted towards the Islamic point of view regarding the Crusades. However, that does seem typical of current attitudes to this period, The Kingdom of Heaven film being an obvious case in point. I notice that film is compared to Arn: Knight Templar by many reviewers and have to say that this is more even handed concerning religion, which marred Ridley Scott's otherwise impressive epic.

This is a great film with a good script, strong performances, a fine supporting cast and some great action. Having seen the original edited version, I think this special extended edition is even better, which says a great deal about this film. I strongly recommend it.

Kingdom of Heaven its not even close ???

It's 1187 in the Holy Lands. Arn Magnusson is known as the honorable Al Ghouti to the Muslims. He rescues Saladin from bandits on his way to Egypt. Saladin is in debt to him.
In flashbacks, Arn is the son of Magnus Folkesson (Michael Nyqvist) and defeats his foe in a duel. He falls for Cecilia. Her sister tries to bed him. It turns into a scandal and he's excommunicated. A pregnant Cecilia is forced into a nunnery and Arn is sent on the Crusade.
The story flow is disrupted with the constant back and forth. It's not that necessary to keep going back to Cecilia. There is also a disjointed feel. Joakim Nätterqvist is a rather bland leading man. He's a nice Viking-like look but lacks a bigger charisma. This is probably something for the fans of the books but it doesn't hold up as a cinematic movie.
The music is extremely slow and lacks dynamics which unfortunately adds to the overall dull atmosphere throughout the film.

Heartbreaking

I loved this film from the first. I love all things Templar, history, so getting this was a must. Unfortunately, something happened to the dvd I had and for quite a while I couldn't get another copy, or it was way too expensive. Then comparatively recently I found and bought another copy of the dvd. I watched it this time with my husband who enjoyed it as well. Talk of star-crossed lovers. I can't say more because I don't want to spoil the plot for others who wish to watch it. I am really interested in the Crusades as well as the Templars. If you love history, Templers, the Crusades, this is the film for you. Recommended.

Why didn't I buy the extended version in the first place?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 April 2014

I bought and enjoyed the original Arn release; English, Danish, Swedish etc. It is an epic story set in turbulent times and incorporates a beautiful love story. I also like the fact that the acting is not over the top nor are the sets or battles - it is more believable than Kingdom of Heaven. Anyway, my original DVD was damaged and I reordered the Extended Edition. I think that when the original DVD was edited, it was either done in haste or else without much compassion or understanding of the full story. It is only when watching the Extended version that so much of the story begins to make sense. More of Arn's childhood, more of his parents, his lifelong relationship with Knut, Knut's story, his love affair and marriage etc. It seems as though they made three key decisions when editing the original release and hoped that it would make sense without giving too much detail; anything relating to Knut and was erased; the struggle for the kingdom was therefore shortened and didn't really make sense; the love story was shortened. If you enjoyed the original version, then I think that you were short-changed, even if you did enjoy it. If you are into 'history' and romantic, then buy this version and sit back and relax for 200 mins of fantastic historical drama.

Epic that could have been even better.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 April 2011

This is the Swedish epic that tells part of the story of Arn, who helped to forge Sweden into a real nation. In Sweden this was two films that ran to over 250 minutes. Here they have been melded down to 130 minutes. So I have some sympathy for the negative reviews that have called this a mish, mash etc. However, it is still a ruddy good effort.

Arn is schooled in a monastery as a way of thanking God for saving his life after an illness (not uncommon practice). He leans more towards archery and sword play than Bible study and so his path to serving God as a soldier is pretty much mapped out. He falls for the daughter of a rival clan and as punishment she gets sent to a nunnery and he has to go off to the Holy Land and serve with the Knights Templar. This is not the story of the Crusades but does deal with it in part, but not very well for historical purists, but the real story here is the love story between Arn and Cecilia, and I felt that there was chemistry and thoroughly enjoyed it. The acting is all pretty much on the money and the cinematography is excellent. And it is epic in the cast and also battle scenes, though I have seen better, but that is a small point. Joakim Natterqvist and Sofia Helin are both excellent and Simon Callow is there for us Brits. Whilst there is the usual 'poetic licence' taken with the plot, this just adds to the narrative and helps sweep you and the plot along.

There have been complaints about the language and I see that might be a problem for some, it is mainly English, but with dialogue in Swedish, Arabic and Latin; I found the subtitles very good and in no way detracted from my enjoyment. However both the Amazon description and the DVD box do not mention the foreign language which has upset a few people. As I said I did not find this a problem and think this is a must for fans of foreign cinema especially if you like a great big dollop of historical action.
