      after years
      a novel by Alexandru Mitru. an idyllic hero as Charming Prince. history, love story, intrigues, patriotic emotions - all in skin of Romanian Middle Age, under reign of Vlad Impaler. like many other films of this period, it is a window. for teenagers, for passion for legendary figures of past but, in same time, for the public from Communist East. so, a fairy-tall is perfect option for escape out of reality. And Arow of Captain Ion is an inspired option for this kind of adventure. because it is real good work, in reconstruction of atmosphere, tension, fight scenes and Valentin Găitan is adorable as Ion. sure, it is not Gladiator but can be a testimony. or only fragment from a type of sensitivity. because, after almost forty years, its flavor is unique way to a time in which technology / special effects are not more important front of powerful message of homeland love and patriotic duty.
