The Lost Legion

This film was a bit ploddy .It does entertain in places but not very convincing.

I happen to have spent a lot of time in present day Bohemia and was very happy to see something of the history from here that is not so well known. Very few people are aware of just how far the Roman legion established outposts in the 5th century. They had outposts in southern Bohemia and were constantly under threat from the Amal Goths and other barbarian tribes and were really cut off from their usual help. I would like to have seen more action, more fights but do think this is an interesting take on Roman legions and for that I give it extra stars instead of sticking to the same stories with same 2 characters everyone else portrays, a number of characters in this film are from history and have very interesting stories behind them I wish we could see better developed. Tom McKay's performance is great, he makes for an interesting hero, likewise the other performances are quite excellent.

You would think a movie about the Roman Empire, even at its end, would be good. You would be mistaken.

The acting isn't that good; there are quite a few adult films which have better acting. The script could have been a lot better. Too bad it wasn't.

The action was okay for a low budget film. No great shakes.

There are lots of semi-naked women throughout. While the inclusion of this 'bevy of beauties' does take the sting out of the lameness of the movie, it still isn't that good.

It's like it tries to be the continuation at times of the Spartacus 4 season series. It fails.

Watch it if you get bored.

I watched the first 30 minutes or so, and tried to ignore the bad acting and costumes, I was hoping the plot would be good, and it was weak. It is soft porn with a British accent.

Acting skill is lost, as well as a plot that makes any sense at all. The fighting scenes, cheaply done in a very small set, are contrived. The sex scenes look like the trailer to a cheap porn movie. The dialogue is spoken so slowly as if to lengthen the movie. My time watching was ultimately what was lost in the Lost Legion.
