Of The Last Legion

Klayhead Movie Review:
The Last Legion

Story about how this young kid who was made Caesar while his dad(ex-Caesar) was still alive.. Caesar got overthrown by barbarians and basically had to run for his little life.. aided, of course, by a few brave men and a busty indian woman.. hehee

Basically the people behind the film is trying to tell a story before the Excalibur.. yes, that one involving king Arthur.. but did they do it well?

Not for me

Kind of not explained by a kid was made Caesar by the father who was alive and well.. Rome inflitrated by barbarians(the Guls)? You must be kidding.. damn me if this is historic, but Rome inflitrated? Then perhaps Mars, the god of War, let it happen to punish the incompetent
Back to the movie, plenty of fight scenes

Ok acting, but voice for the leader for the male lead(the commander, not the boy).. he screwed up big time when he was trying to do "the motivation speech before a big battle thing" with his sissy voice.. of all great battles and commanders, this guy is not even there, go back to being a foot soldier lar..

the battle scenes are really poorly done.. low budget maybe.. people expect more when you speak about Rome and its legions..

Spoiler warning(highlight/select the text to read)
*Another stupid story were the "main force" appears only after the brave first group gets whacked, pretty much ask the questions "why this stupid roman legions cannot make up their minds and help the first group defend the fort in the first place?"

Overall, 2 out of 5 for me

Don't bother watching it, unless the VCD sells at $10
