Note de dkbrown
A lightweight comedy - amusing rather than laugh-out-loud - this film is carried by the attractiveness of its leads (Kim Basinger at 50 is stunning, and more than a match for John Corbett, eight years her junior).
There are a number of good supporting actors - Philip Charles MacKenzie's gay receptionist is a joy - and cameos, notably Tom Hanks. Mike Starr and Phill Lewis's two cops routine is a little too hackneyed for my taste, although their two Elvis impressionists' number is worthwhile.
Altogether a very silly movie, but not unenjoyable.

Two things spoil this episode for me. First, the plot line and situation is too close to "Patterns of Force" (the Nazi episode). Secondly, there are some notable historical bloomers.
"Parallel development"...apparently proved by the fact the "Romans" speak English. Shouldn't that be Latin?
"Rome had no sun-worshippers" (McCoy)... actually, Mithraism (sun-worship) was the biggest religion among the Roman soldiery in the first two centuries AD.
Surely they could have afforded a historical consultant!
A pity, because there are some nicely ironic touches - I particularly like the commercial breaks during the gladiatorial combats!
