Sometimes when you watch a movie, you start to think about what the director and writers thought at the start thought the finished product would be like. Honestly, they should have thought about it and left it at that.

Poor script, poor acting, very few moments of historical correctness and gone overboard with political correctness. I mean, a female legionairre? I'm all for having tough women in movies, but a female legionairre simply wouldn't have happened, Romans wouldn't even have considered it. I get this is fantasy, but it's based on reality. Then they should at least get the historical foundation right, same goes for some of the equipment. It's not that hard to find someone who actually has knowledge about the Roman period and army. It just shows that the director and writers didn't even take their own movie serious, how is an audience supposed to be seriously entertained by it then?

My advice would be to skip this and find yourself a movie of at least some quality to entertain yourself.

85 minites of this utter dross tested my patience! Zero acting, talking head script and special effects makeup that kids wouldn't use on their Halloween costumes. Avold in the cinema, dvd or the streaming platforms. Save the 85 mintites for something else - bathing the dog, cleaning the toilet , spending time with the in- laws, anything but wasting it on this dross.

No matter what, the first rule of writing is to try to keep a film as historically accurate as possible, which can allow you to create situations around real events.

This movie just destroys all its credibility 4 minutes in with female legionnaires. I understand the current and understandable equality movements and fully support them, but you cannot impose modern values into a movie that takes place two thousand years ago. There were no women serving in any fighting capacity in the Roman Legion, PERIOD.

Secondly the acting is very wooden and the costumes and armor look like they were just made as they actually gleam. The special effects were also quite bad as was the writing. Due to the low budget they went for shaky cams in the battle scenes to make you so dizzy that you couldn't make out what was going on.

As I write this review over half the calculated ratings for this movie are 9's and 10's. The cast and crew must have quite a few friends is all I can say.

Low budget doesn't always mean a bad movie, but it does in this case.

Not Recommended.

I've never left a review on here before, however I'd also never left a film early until now. Thankfully I have a cinema membership so I didn't pay entry for this otherwise i would have been looking for a refund or transfer to another film. Poor acting, script, pace, camera work, this film had me redeeming qualities for me.

I have been watching films now for 40 plus years and I can honestly say that this is the worst film I have ever seen. Can't really add to what others have said except it makes Cubby Brown's UFO look like Citizen Kane.
