«The Last Templar is a recent television miniseries repurposed by RHI
Entertainment as a 170 minute film for home video release, conspicuously around
the time of the theatrical run of Angels and Demons, which shares more than a
passing thematic resemblance. The back cover art says that it's based upon a
bestseller by Raymond Khoury.
Whether or not you enjoy this film will likely depend upon whether you can
accept a 40+ Mira Sorvino as a wisecracking action heroine. Now, I'm a fan of
Sorvino. She was great in Woody Allen's Mighty Aphrodite, for which she won an
Oscar, and she was engaging in the underrated sci-fi horror flick Mimic. The
Last Templar, however, has her character in situations that really stretch
believability - even by the dubious standards of made-for-television fare.
Watching her karate chop three street thugs to submission or jousting a knight
on horseback while wearing high heels and a cocktail dress (more on this
ridiculousness in a bit) just sort of imploded the movie for me. This exercise
in cheese leads one to wonder if her career is on the decline. In any case, Sorvino plays Tess, the daughter of an archeologist who exists in a
dream world, in this miniseries. She's a single mother who lives with her
daughter in an "apartment of the gods" in downtown New York City. She has a
footwear fetish, she can speak Latin and Turkish (both of which are convenient
for the plot), and she has a friend(?) named Clive who's totally supportive of
her. These things are put to the test right away. At a gala showing Christian
artifacts, a band of four horse-riding thugs dressed up as Knights Templar
stride up to the museum and slay a guardsman. They then proceed to trash the
place, stealing several artifacts including a cross that Tess's father helped
discover as well as the mayor's wife (!). After this big scene, they make their
getaway - on horseback - in downtown New York. Yep, this is the masterplan that
sets the miniseries's plot in motion...».
