Note:A good portion of the film is in Swedish (the scenes taking place in Sweden are in Swedish), but since this is a series about the Crusades, the filmmakers wanted characters to speak in their native tongues as well. So there are scenes in English, French and Arabic as well.There will be no individual language tracks on the disc, but rather one audio track that includes dialog in several different languages depending on the scene. Review: What's a Sverker? Buy and you shall know. - Wow, what a great movie/series. Mini-series would seem to be the appropriate term. I can't believe I'd never heard of it before. Thank you desertcart for having such an extensive collection! Usually I just ignore their suggestions. Sure glad I didn't this time. This little Scandanavian gem blew me away with its storyline, acting and cinematography. I love it when a movie is both entertaining and educational. After watching it I had to hit wikipedia and learn more about the subject matter because it was so interesting. Arn of course is a fictional character used to tell the story while actual history unfolds around him. Anyway, the story begins in 12th century Sweden with our hero Arn as a boy. We see dynastic feuding between his clan (the Folkung) and the evil Sverkers amid the snowy Swedish landscape. We follow him as he learns both the spiritual and martial arts. He finds love, then has it taken from him. As penance he travels to the Holy Land where he becomes a respected and feared Knight Templar. He protects the pilgrims and fights the Arabs. Then he comes back home to fight injustice and reclaim his love. This is obviously just a short summary that does no justice to the story. Its got everything: battles, love, loss, redemption and Swedish! Its such a fun language to listen to. Subtitles are provided for those of us who don't speak it. This was a big budget undertaking for the Swedish film industry, and I think it outdoes anything Hollywood has made for a long time in this genre. If you enjoy crusader/medieval films you will love this one, and will learn many things about this period of Swedish history(I know I did). It was certainly a worthwhile addition to my movie library and would be to yours as well. Review: Great! - One of the best mini series of all time.

I've watched many times over ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you're going to film a Templar epic- THIS is how it is done! *by P***5 on June 25, 2013* Based on the well-written Crusades trilogy by Jan Guillou, a respected Swedish author and journalist, Arn, the Knight Templar focuses on the life and exploits of one Arn Magnusson, a Swedish nobleman born into the Folkung dynasty during the Crusading era. A tale of love and loss, betrayal, redemption, overwhelming triumph and utter defeat- I found myself unable to put these books down once I'd started reading. Mind you, the writing style and dialog can be a bit offputting until you take into account that the characters in the novels do not speak English as we know it, it isn't their first language and their habits and customs, while similar to most Europeans of the time- you get the impression that you've been given an insider's look into a culture much like our own once you get past all the trappings. I wonder if the author had a political message in mind when he wrote these books, but I digress. The author obviously did his research with regard to arms, armor, accoutrements, tactics as well as the complicated political arena of the day- a lot of people will draw parallels between this film and Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven although I must say, the attention to detail is what makes this the better movie. As is usually the case with a film adaptation of a series of books, you can't include everything- but the producers were savvy enough to not take out anything that would ruin the cohesive nature of the story. Keep in mind that I am writing about the Complete Series, not the chopped and formed version that came to the U.S. some years back- as with Kingdom of Heaven, the theatrical version was cut to conform to running time specs and as such, suffered greatly from the pieces that were lacking. This series was adapted from the original Swedish epics and is as complete as you'll find- consider it the Director's Cut if you will. In my opinion, this is the best 'Templar' film I've seen to date, and one of the best medieval epics I've seen thus far. If you have any interest in anything medieval, or just love a good rousing saga, this is a MUST SEE. I encourage anyone who has seen the film and liked it, to read the books as well- they provide a more indepth look into the characters and their motivations that may not be easily identified by anyone who hasn't already read them and is viewing the movie for the first time. I've read the books through twice so far- and I've seen this movie at least three times. It is a favorite and once this collection came available, I jumped right on it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/11985878-arn-the-knight-templar](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/11985878-arn-the-knight-templar) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
