Rome - The Complete First Season

Starring: Kevin McKidd, Ray Stevenson

Warner Home Video | August 1, 2011 | DVD

(HBO Dramatic Series) Four hundred years after the founding of the Republic, Rome is the wealthiest city in the world, a cosmopolitan metropolis of one million people; epicenter of a sprawling empire. The Republic was founded on principles of shared power and fierce personal competition, never allowing one man to seize absolute control. But now, those foundations are crumbling, eaten away by corruption and excess. After eight years of war, two soldiers, Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo unwittingly become entwined in the historical events of ancient Rome. A serialized drama of love and betrayal, masters and slaves, husbands and wives, ROME chronicles a turbulent era that saw the death of the republic and the birth of an empire.

Rome.

Wow.

I have no idea how historically accurate this HBO production is. But it is wonderful eye-candy. The acting is amazing. The sets are amazing. The costumes are amazing. The story-line, plotting, pacing, character development, the whole thing is simply amazing. Love the music. Can hardly wait to finish watching Season 1 and get into Season 2. And to boot Caesar is played by one of my favourite actors, Ciaran Hines! Just loved him in Persuasion. Run right out and rent (or purchase) this series. So very worth your money and time!
