Nonureva Really Surprised!
Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
zucccchini-81274 This HBO Series was excellent. I looked forward to each episode and was a little miffed when I found out it was going to be canceled. The actors/actresses were extremely talented and kept me IN the story through out. There are few movies, or TV series that keep me entertained in their entirety but this did. I was not aware of it at the time but the series had been canceled and the second season had to be shortened. The writers did an excellent job of incorporating the present with the hurried future. I am not a history buff so perhaps it was my lack of knowledge of history making it seamless. It was a different look into the lives of the Romans. We are use to getting the stories of the lives of the leaders and the historical events surrounding them rather than what the pubic and individuals directly beneath experienced. It was a different avenue and approach to producing historical drama in my estimation.
bobfromdorset Sit back and get ready to be entertained, excellent story line that flows from episode to episode, I guess that a viewer could miss one out and still keep up but really wouldn't want to. The lead characters are so in the groove that it is the viewer who is transported back almost as if you were watching as a fly on the wall would have. I am into history and appreciate the way that real events were woven into the story line in so many ways. I particularly enjoyed how the entire story evolved and friendships were forged although some with issues that caused further issues, great writing! Couple of sad moments but mostly it was upbeat and likely to represent how life really was for the peoples of that time.
aew-10 I have been interested in Greek and Roman history since I went to school. I was looking forward to a serious production. I had no preconceptions and did not know which era of the long history of Rome would be addressed.This had the potential to be an amazing series given all the plotting and political intrigue that went on in ancient Rome over many centuries. Instead it is reduced to the level of a soap opera.This series is just plain awful. Where to start - poor acting, poor dialog, sex every few minutes, nudity, jerky plot, no introduction as to who the protagonists are and their back story? This along with Spartacus is not wholesome family entertainment.I gave up on this dross after one episode.
iPalm I really liked this series, it was exciting and maybe a good history lesson. My interests goes too the Roman Empire, and this was one of the best I ever saw about the history of the Roman Empire. I recommend this series really, it's exciting, romanticism, action and a good story. The wars of the Romans are well played the actors are good too, the most exciting moments were when Caesar dies, and the roman empire were split too 4 halfs. When the 4 were splits, then the real political and corruption gets started, you can see how they did everything in the bad and the good ways but they did it only for them selfs. If you are a great history and Roman Empire fan this series are really good, if not you can always try. Hope you like the series as much I did.
