The Roman Ninth Legion was ordered to attack the barbarians in northern England, but was almost wiped out in a trap. The protagonist, who was a centurion, led a squad to break out of the siege. When he never wanted to escape the heavy siege and interception and return to his hometown, his own people raised them to them. Butcher knife. This film has the potential to jump out of ancient European heroic films. For example, it can be contradictory and entangled between the qualities of warriors and the justice of war. Unfortunately, it does not. Although the film provides these elements, it does not cause these elements to react chemically. More effort is spent on highlighting the bloody cruelty of war, without seeing the struggle of human nature. Just when I was desperate, I unexpectedly played the most Chinese martial arts routine at the end of the film: hand in hand with a beautiful woman to escape from the world, which almost made me think that I was watching the ancient Roman version of "Liancheng Jue" and smiled.
