Faithful Upgrade of the 1950's Epic...
|
| I owned and enjoyed the 1950's version of this piece for some time before the Polish update arrived in my box. More time was put into this series, as was stated in another post, therefore scenes don't appear as rushed. As a fan of series like HBO's Rome, I could appreciate the graphic nature of the film...life in Ancient Rome was graphic, so this production was only being faithful to the culture of the day. I also felt that the characters were more developed in this version than they were in the 1950's classic...we saw more of the Apostle Peter for instance and caught a more in-depth look at Nero's madness. The only thing that threw me off a bit, and left my rating short 1 star, was the order of events. If you know your history...then you, like I was, will be confused to see Nero's death preceding Peter's return to Rome so that 'Christ could be crucified a 2nd time." I also would've like to see more of the Apostle Paul. Lastly, while I have an appreciation for movies that require subtitles, I feel that an English overdub feature would've been nice, considering that the Ancient Romans spoke Latin anyway. But oh well...a classic nonetheless. Buy the movie. |
