Christina Effie C @RT62318158 02/08/2025 Will this be on prime? See more Clyde @RT94665643 10/14/2023 I thought it was very good. The production quality is excellent for a historical documentary and it will keep you watching and engaged. It reminds me of the old school History Channel style documentaries. I can't speak to any possible small inaccuracies. But overall seems on track from what i remember from college See more 07/25/2020 The series takes some pretty obvious shortcuts , there are no costume changes and I heard one character scream twice in the exact same way. See more 01/28/2020 Extremely disappointing. Not only do the characters completely lack depth, it is like the makers went out of their way to make almost every single detail look historically inaccurate: They tick all the boxes of typical mistakes they obviously copied from other series/movies set in Ancient Rome (those horrible cuffs, leather cuirasses, deep cleavages on the actresses), and then they add some more inaccuracies of their own (a beardless Marcus Aurelius, to just name one)! One would expect these things from a mindless action movie, but at the same time they seem to aspire to bring some kind of documentary. By trying to unite two irreconcilable formats, they fail miserably at both. See more 04/13/2019 Amazing show. The history of the Roman Empire is very interesting. See more harsh c @H_A_R_S_H 11/29/2018 A mix of documentary and drama, both of the poorest quality imaginable. Acting and scenes are like watching NPCs roaming around in a cheap video game, and the commentary fails to provide even the most basic explanation of events. See more Read all reviews
