    This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

    Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

    Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

    *Please continue to film "CZAS HONORU". I do not want this series to come to an end. This show hooks you in and I cannot stop watching so I beg you, please produce more seasons. Ideally up to season 10, or more.* =)I am hooked! This show really illustrated the struggles of Poland's anti Nazi resistance. The action and suspense will make your heart pound. The meticulously thought out scenes are all interconnected. Nothing is black and white, each nationality has good and evil. The Nazis are portrayed accurately. The Warsaw ghetto is depicted in great detail. I want the entire DVD set now! I enjoy shows that are unpredictable, that keep you guessing. With the budget that was available for this show, They did a superb job. You will not see grand explosions or expensive special effects, but you will definitely be absorbed with every emotion portrayed in this show. I wish this show was aired in the US. *TIP* For English subtitles, if you are using Google Chrome, download the SUBBER app. Click "Extensions" in the menu. Search for Subber subtitle viewer. There you can search for subtitles for any show, in almost any language. If you are watching the first episode in season 1, search "Czas Honoru S01E01"

    I have never seen anything like that... so touching, moving and didactive serial, just obligatory to watch! Great acting, great action, you just can't resist watching another and another.. But it's not a typical serial - you don't waste your time on it! You learn about WWII and polish resistance.. What a shame that nobody knows how brave this nation was... I've heard that there are some serious plans to release this serial in England but even if it's not true, don't hesitate to buy "Time of Honor". Exepcts for all the adventages I mentioned, you can get an idea of what life was about 70 years ago, without Internet, facebook, mobiles and all this stuff which deprives our times from romanticism and feelings.

    My father (38y) watches these series religiously, I started watching them now and I really like it. There is something amazing about this series that pulls you in, and I am not even a big fan of the war movies, but I recommend this one for everyone who is interested in better understanding of Warsaw residents and Polish people during the crisis of war. It is not a fairy-tale like most of Hollywood productions but it's rather realistic movie based on a true story. The action of some episodes give the audience a remarkable joy of feeling the atmosphere of occupied Poland and the adrenaline goes up when you see those young, brave and heroic teenagers fighting for their freedom. Enjoy watching it.David Zysk New York City

    I own season 1, 2 and 3, all have English subtitles. Very easy on the eyes, and in big letters. The Story (based on the historical events) A group of Polish soldiers manages to escape German occupied Poland, after the capitulation of their army in September 1939. They are being trained in Britain as commando strike force specialists. After many month of training, they are being parachuted back to Poland to build resistance and sabotage cells. The movie does not only tell their story, but also that of their friends associates and families. Doing resistance work in Poland is extremely dangerous. The SS and Gestapo acts mercilessly and ruthlessly to any of their attempts of defiance. This miniseries is in no way a propaganda product, but a closely authentic portrait of a dreadful period. The German side is portrait fairly, they are not demonised nor dehumanized, but portrait as victims of their time. Off course there is now way to excuse the brutality and the atrocities, that some of them committed. The three whole seasons allow for some very interesting character developments,that don't fall into a formulas, some turns and twists are refreshingly unanticipated. The story has a nail biting suspenseful flow. If you have planned to watch one episode per evening, you will catch yourself watching 3 or 4. If you want to compare this miniseries to American or British productions, this miniseries scores on exceptional good acting, scriptwriting and historical authenticity. It does lack the huge budget and special effects of BAND OF BROTHERS, but does not have to hide behind the British series like FOYLES WAR, A PIECE OF CAKE, WINGS OF WAR and ISLAND OF WAR, just to name a few. For Polish TV, the computer CGI effects are quite awesome and inventive. There is some excellent work being done, by blending original black and white scenes in remade color scenes, with our main protagonists acting in it. I hope the seasons will continue, and go right up to the end of the war. I'm currently watching the end of season 2, and the German Wehrmacht has just started to invade the Sovietunion. I also noted that this Polish production is still using Stars from the time of the cold war, together with the younger generation. It works great ! As a German Canadian viewer, I noted that the polish actors portraying the Germans, doing an excellent job. You can take note of Austrian, Bavarian, Saxon and lower German accents, and follies. There are many films made about the Warsaw Ghetto, this movie goes into great detail to describe the tragedy. I would go so far and say, like no other. The viewer will also experience an ambiance of fear and desperation, as they will identifying themselves with the protagonists. At this stage, the Germans are still winning on all fronts, the German defeat at the gates of Moscow and Stalingrad has not happened yet..... Yet a believe in humanity and a final victory, keeps our protagonists not to despair.
