Staid historical drama touches on a relatively unexplored historical issue, with ok production values for this sort of historical drama from a mid-sized country, but ultimately feels a little Hallmark movie-ish. Weirdly consequence-free narrative for pretty much every…

Certos filmes pertencem única e exclusivamente ao grande ecrã, outros parecem deslocados quando experienciados fora do contexto de aula de história no liceu. Infelizmente, "1618" enquadra-se nessa segunda categoria. UCI Cinemas El Corte Inglês
