    Surprisingly good muscle-bound peplum

    Brothers Romulus (Steve Reeves) and Remus (Gordon Scott), nursed by a wolf then raised by a shepherd, lead a rebellion and then fall out over a woman (sexy Virna Lisi) and over the founding of Rome, the eternal city. While likely not remembered as 'actor's actors', Reeves and Scott are absolutely fine in this colourful, well-made mytho-historial saga. The production manages to look more epic than it is and the battle scenes, while a bit small-scale, are quite well done. There is some fine horse stunt-work (notably in the early race through fire and in the final battle scenes - I suspect that the rules pertaining to animal stunts were more relaxed in Italy than in the US). The 'special effects' (such as arrows hitting in or near people) are well executed and although the dubbing leaves something to be desired, the characters are all fine for a sword-and-sandal opus. I watched this primarily because I wanted something 'visual that's not too abysmal', and was pleased (and surprised) that it wasn't abysmal at all. The torture scene, where Romulus is spun on something akin to a giant salad-spinner while being flogged, is one of a kind (and a tribute to the sacrifices the actor was willing to make for his art).

    Strapping Reeves, Scott in sword & sandal spaghetti epic

    The first detail to catch my eye about ROMOLO E REMO (DUEL OF THE TITANS) was the screenplay collaboration between the two Sergios of spaghetti Western fame: Corbuccci and Leone. By 1961, Corbucci had already directed quite a few biblical epics, disaster flicks, comedies starring Toto, and even sci-fi, mostly low budget; Leone would achieve global fame by directing FOR A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS three years later.

    Alas, the screenplay is not ROMOLO E REMO's strongest card due to evidently implausible moments, but it wisely focuses on the relationship between the two brothers raised by a wolf who would - according to the legend - create Rome. That relation reminds one of the biblical Abel and Cain, Romolo the good guy, played by the splendidly fit, former Mr Universe Steve Reeves, Remo (Gordon Scott) the self-confessed envious sibling.

    Both Reeves and Scott post muscular, larger than life physiques in this sword and sandal epic, with the great Massimo Girotti playing the king, Tazio, who does not want yet another settlement - the future eternal city, Rome, no less! - to steal thunder from his realm, and resents having his daughter abducted by Romolo.

    Tazio's daughter is Iulia, played by the absolutely gorgeous Virni Lisi. Needless to say, Romolo is smitten at the sight of her, as any man worth his salt would be. Problem is, Remo - who already has loyal Laura Solari carrying a torch for him - also wants lovely Lisi, and has designs on becoming king of the new city that his sibling is so enthusiastic about... meaning that he wants no living brother to share power with. Now, that is real drama for you!

    Cinematography by Enzo Barboni looks cheap, the battle sequences and the volcanic eruption reflect shoestring production values, but somehow Corbucci manages to keep the action interesting to the end. 7/10.

    Italian Peplum Classic with Steve REEVES, Virna LISI and Gordon SCOTT

    With Steve REEVES and Gordon SCOTT, the two greatest sword and sandal film actors meet. It's about the two hostile brothers who, according to legend, were responsible for the founding of Rome. The argument escalates when the beautiful Julia (Virna LISI, Silver Palm for LA REINE MARGOT) enters the lives of the two brothers.

    José GRECI and Massimo GIROTTI can also be seen in other roles. Sergio LEONE contributed to the script and was directed by Sergio CORBUCCI. 848,000 tickets were sold in West German cinemas (source: InsideKino).

    One of the best sword and sandal films from the heyday of the genre!

    Non-Campy Peplum From The Director Of "Django"

    Pretty good historical Peplum effort here by Sergio Corbucci, the Italian exploitation director best known for his trend setting spaghetti western classic DJANGO. It's easy to dismiss Italian sword & sandal spectacles from the early 1960s: they are universally low budgeted, take shortcuts that their Americanized counterparts wouldn't dream of (BEN HUR, THE 10 COMMANDMENTS, SPARTACUS) and borrow liberally from them as well, sometimes to the point of plagiarism. Not that there is anything automatically wrong with that, artists steal good ideas from each other all the time, and there's only so much you can do with a bunch of guys running around in tunics with swords.

    This one tells of the founding of Rome by the twin brothers of legend, Romulus and Remus, wonderfully personified by Steve Reeves (HERCULES, HERCULES UNCHAINED) and particularly Gordon Scott (TARZAN'S GREATEST ADVENTURE, SAMSON AND THE 7 MIRACLES) in his first Peplum outing after ditching the Tarzan loincloth. Reeves plays the noble, stoic Romulus, destined to be the first king of Rome whether he likes it or not, and Gordon Scott plays Remus as you have never seen Gordon Scott before -- Wild, erratic, envious, prone to violence, distrustful of anyone who does not blindly follow his leadership, and ultimately flawed enough to come across as very human rather than the son of a Roman god.

    Legend has it that Reeves refused an offer to play a dual role as both brothers and insisted the producers bring in his friend Gordon Scott instead, and it is a testament to Reeves' humbleness as a performer that he ceded the meatier role to his friend; Reeves is great as Romulus, but Scott is excellent as Remus, and the performance opened the door for Scott to appear in several more Pepla before the fad wore itself out. This one proves that he was capable of acting in addition to throwing large boulders at people, and the brothers' final showdown is indeed the stuff of tragedy and legend.

    There's actually some high powered talent behind this effort. In addition to the A list manbeef and director Corbucci, spaghetti western specialists Duccio Tessari and Sergio Leone both played a role in scripting the non-hammy, non-campy screenplay, with cinematography by Enzo Barboni of TRINITY era fame, sets by the always brilliant Carlo Simi, and a sweeping, robust musical score by Piero Piccioni that is quite fittingly epic in nature. Supporting cast stalwarts Piero Lulli, Franco Volpi, José Greci, Laura Solari, and Jacques Sernas as the scurrilous Curzio bring a breadth to the production that makes many other examples of the genre seem silly by comparison.

    Here is a thinking man's Peplum, eschewing the traditional gladiator bouts and he-man physical strength displays for a tightly woven story with a convincingly realistic tone. I would rank this movie up there with Gordon Mitchell's FURY OF ACHILLIES as amongst the best that the Italians were able to muster to cash in on the fad. Both films deal with historical legends and both maintain a somewhat serious tone throughout, and you can tell with this one that the Italian filmmakers were endowed with a sense of pride in telling their own pre-history for a change instead of just another potboiler script. Even with all the chest oil there's a tone of dignity to the film that is atypical of what the Peplum genre usually has to offer.

    If I were to have a genuine criticism about the film it would be in regards to the barbaric horse race through a gauntlet of fire that the producers saw fit to include during the opening movements. It doesn't look like it was very safe for man or beast, and I can only hope that they asked the horses' permission first before running them through the very real pre-CGI obstacle course of burning rubbish and trip wires just for the benefit of the cameras. You have to wonder about the Italians sometimes -- couldn't they have just had a nice harmless javelin throwing contest?

    7/10

    A Pretty Good Movie

    This movie is a pretty good movie, there's lots of action scenes, the storyline makes sense. It takes place in Ancient Rome. It's a good movie for the time period. What I didn't like as much was that the movie wasn't centered as much around the plot, but instead the movie was centered around the two men's muscles. It, again, is a good movie for the 60's, but cannot compare to modern movies. Overall, it's a pretty good movie worth seeing, but only if you don't mind that the main plot of the movie is the two men's muscles, how big they are, and how manly the men are.

    • Trivia
      In the United States, most of the Italian produced sword and sandal/mythological muscle man movies were booked by exhibitors into their "B" theaters, usually as part of a double feature. With the teaming of both Steve Reeves and Gordon Scott, Paramount was able to get this booked into many "A" theaters as a single feature.
