Romulus

This series is actually really good. Its thrilling in each episode. I didnt have a single dull moment in this series. It really captures the feeling of living in the early stages of man setting up communitys in the northen italy. Historians cant tell us that much about this sertain period in history, the story about romulus and remus is an exciting myth and I really must give creeds to the person who wrote this series. I really love the angle they spinn the story from.

Actors are preforming great. The only downside is the fact that you can tell the spending on this series didnt get the full attention it should have. Dont get me wrong. Its well filmed and produced from the budget I asume they used, who was probably in the lower limit. This series deserved alot more attention and unfortunatly I belive it gets brushed away by the fact that they talk italian, and not english. Which in my eyes is just sad. I really hope we get to see a season 2 but i doubt it since it doesnt really seem to hit the wider audience.

Good job on this series. I loved it. I hope I get to see more in the future.

It is untraditional in a bold way, beautifully filmed, good acting. Costumes, scenography and nature play well together. Teeth and fingernails are yellow and black. It's raw and not very pretty, but at the time I think life was too. Please continue the good work, I would rather follow Romulus than so much else. I really hope there comes a season 2!!!

This is an excellent series. I have just watched all the episodes and have to say, it is the best historical series TV has seen for a long time.

I will list some of the positives for this show:

1 - The language is Latin ! The producers actually went to the effort of bringing in experts to teach the entire cast the correct pronunciation of the words etc ! That is some dedication !

2 - The story of Romulus and Remus is fictional yet ingrained n the history of Rome. So it allows a lot of freedom with the storyline as it is a ledged, not historical fact. As such the series could explore many angles without leaving you puzzled as to whether they are altering a historical timeline for dramatic effect.

3 - It doesn't hold back. Like Game of Thrones, there is blood and sex, but it is not as gratuitous as Game of Thrones. It actually fits into the storyline. Their is mud, mess and blood. It actually looks and feels as though you are in historic Italy, rather than on a Hollywood set or seeing a Hollywood ideal of history (where everyone is in full makeup etc).

4 - It has action and intrigue. It isn't predictable. You don't know who is going to die when, or how. You are not sure how the storyline will play out until you get there. I can get very easily bored with a lot of movies and programmes - but this kept me focussed throughput !

5 - It is just good TV !

Yes, I admit, for me it is one of the best series from the last decade. I am subjective, off course. But Romulus is just brilliant. For the wise use of the bricks of legends and myths. For the courage ad full virtue to use archaic Latin , giving high credibility to storytelling nd seducing generations of people for who this language represents a part of life and memories. For impecable acting - and I remind, again and again, the admirable job of Francesco Di Napoli and Marianna Fontana. Not the last for the escape from the circle of cliches. No doubts, a great series.

I'm honestly baffled. The show is masterfully done. The costumes, colors, cinematography, action sequences - everything is top notch. They even speak archaic latin!!! Acting is stellar, and the story is compelling - I was surprised a couple of times by the story going totally against clichés and being genuinely captivating, which is less and less common nowadays. I have no idea what's going to happen next (apart from the founding of Rome, obviously - but at this moment of a story, it's impossible to tell how exactly it'll unfold, which is great). I love it, and I appreciate an extremely hard work that must have gone into creating the series. Huge congratulations to all involved, the show is simply spectacular!! I'm hooked, I'll be watching and keeping my fingers crossed for season 2. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it, you won't be disappointed.
