Amazing show. Authentic view of Rome, with the story of two legionnaires mingled with the historical events of the fall of the Republic.
Authenticity colors history in this unmatched epic vision of western cultures’ origins; ensemble cast + cinematic grandiosity; a masterpiece
Good show somwhere between the historically accurate and the complete bullshit. But really entertaining with strong plot and characters.
Accessible docudrama on Rome. Easy watching and entertaining and high production value. Strongly recommend
If you like Spartacus but more interested in politics than fight scenes, you will love Rome more.
One of the all time great shows in terms of plot and acting. Depicts the brutality i of the time & shows you why this culture needed Jesus
One of the better dramatised history series. Covers the late Roman republic through the eyes of 2 soldiers mentioned in Caesar's dispatches.
The quintessential historical TV series and probably the best non-documentary for Ancient Rome ever made.
Very few period pieces are as dedicated to accuracy and authenticity as this show and fewer still are as entertaining.
Absolute Ridley Scott classic, one of zimmers best scores too
