Memorable, crazy movie
TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

... if a bit of sex and violence doesnt offend that is! Some great cross-series plot lines also and far more sophisticated than initially meets the eye. Leagues ahead of forerunners like Rome in every sense.

The early few episodes of this show I saw nothing great, poor voice acting and it looked cheap. It was not long, before my opinion had completely flipped, and has easily become one of my favorite shows. The storyline is driven by a powerful character in an extrodary and interesting period in history. The uniqueness of this show is something I will struggle to find again, highly reccommemd it to anyone who is unsure of starting or continuing past the first few episodes.

Did you like the movie gladiator? it's not watered down or drawn on. it's the movie in detail. a story of life as a slave, a fighter a gladiotar. all the training, hardship and period politics of rome all well done. great acting some awesome secondary characters and a mostly true story - i verified the facts btw. can't ask for more

I rate this series 5 though I have only watched the first season, which is such a wild triumph I cannot help but rate the whole thing as outstanding in every way. The drama in that first season is visceral, heart-wrenching, romantic, humorous and so wildly entertaining I believe it shall endure for many years to come. The stories of these gladiators and this ludus are stories of passionate love, unbridled determination, tear-jerking romance, personal transcendence, metaphysical visions, hubristic arrogance, Mercutian camaraderie and choreographic physical feats. And all this is delivered flawlessly; visually orgasmic, a dramaturgical tour-de-force and with writing that makes one reminisce of Shakespeare. What more can I say.
