I only heard of this series when researching Tom Mison. I watched the entire 3 seasons hoping it would meet up to all the reviews gushing over it. Jason Momoa is such an excellent actor, but even he couldn't save the series that literally had me watching the 2nd half of season 2 and all of season 3 in fast forward. The script, storyline and "logic" was awful. Too many stupid af decisions by the characters made it pretty much intolerable. And it took way too long for "Queen Kane" to be killed, but showed that dumb logic of people of privilege getting away with everything. Sadly they do, but not for much longer in real life. Wouldn't recommend this to anyone I liked.

You know you've got a great film when there are bots? Trolls? Paid trashers? (take your pick) that try to destroy it so no one will want to even go see it. Discernment is key in everything these days. Read the reviews but take notice...very highs and very lows are always a dead giveaway that someone wants the film to fail...or the reverse...someone wants a crappy film to succeed. This film is well made, and the acting is spot on for the situation. Who needs to have constant gore in order to enjoy a film? Normally it's an adrenaline junkie who gets high on more than adrenaline.

If you want to watch a high quality, well acted and highly believable film, this one should be on the top of your list! Finally, a film that's NOT pish! A film that doesn't have to rely on CGI or anything else but pure, strong acting skills. Well done! Don't pass this film up if you enjoy high quality acting and no shaking camera until you want to puke scenes. Highly recommended viewing for the discerning film goer.

I was a very young 14 when this movie came out and I first watched it. The actions of the white slave owners - both husband and wife - was so appalling to me that it moulded how I treated others to this day. I'd already been colour-blind...was raised to recognise the soul within the person...so that didn't change. What changed was the way I viewed other white people - being a white-skinned person, myself. I spent my life observing the actions of people to one another and it's still heart-breaking to see b/c there has been a resurgence of overall hatred of one another rather than simply of one's colour. But that ending...it has been emblazoned on my memory for all time. That horror will never leave me. I hope people will learn that Love is the key and stop allowing hatred to rule their actions.
