The other reviewers sing its praises, but I don't think this movie warrants that.
Yes, it is a great story that seems to be fairly historically accurate. The set design and some of the costumes were fabulous. BUT the acting was way over the top. Sometimes they sounded like they were just reading a script. Sometimes it was too melodramatic. Much of the dialog seemed corny to me.
Most of the time I felt nothing. I should have felt the passion and commitment of the Christians. I should have felt sickened by Nero's mad rule and the Christians being thrown to the lions. I should have felt the love and/or sexual tension between Marcus Venicius and Lygia and wished them to overcome the obstacles keeping them apart. But I felt none of that. All I felt is that the movie seemed to drag on at times. All I wished was for it to be over.
I love different types of films, and usually I enjoy these types of epic historical films, but this one did nothing for me and seemed very overrated.

I love Joe Mantegna and I love crime/thriller movies. But this one sucked! It's a slow moving predictable film. The idea was dumb. The story was dumb. Much of the dialogue was dumb. The title was even dumb. Into "thin air?" What "thin air?" We knew where Lisa, the kidnapped woman, was and who she was with the whole time. No mystery there. Should have been an exciting thriller, but it wasn't.
I like sensual, erotic, titillating films. And while many of the actions and thoughts of the Marquis de Sade cannot be condoned, I find him a very interesting man. So needless to say I was excited about watching this DVD. However, it was so bad I couldn't finish watching. The acting, screenplay, costumes, set design, & cinematography were all terrible. Even the very few sex scenes were uninspiring and not sensual or erotic at all. Half the time I couldn't tell what was going on because of the poor attempt at "artsy" camera work. I don't know how closely this followed the book, but it sure wasn't as sultry or nasty or bad as I would expect from a de Sade story. Because of the subject matter I should have liked this film. I didn't. I loathed it.
