So-called "epic" movies

It's not for Mr. F, and he won't look for this movie.

The plot is actually weak. The team’s so-called main force, Last Legion, did not appear until the second half. In the first half, it was said that the infant emperor Romulus was taken away by the barbarians as soon as he established his country. With the help of Mira, the warrior of the Roman Empire, he finally rescued the emperor (of course, he did not forget that the little emperor accidentally found the legendary Excalibur), and fled to Great Britain to find the legendary 9th Legion to restore the country; People in the army have integrated into society and become civilians. At this time, the barbarians chased, and finally after a crowd of people fought, the barbarian king was killed and the little emperor became the tribal leader of Great Britain.

Aurelius (oh why is it called Aurelius? It always reminds me of "Love Actually", Mr. F's later Portuguese wife Aurelia) seems to be able to do what anyone can. With a few people, you can climb the fortress to deal with the brave and brave barbarians ( Of course, the Mira he is carrying is also an unknown and very powerful character); Mira is even more peculiar. He clearly carries a bunch of Eastern Roman costumes. Why does he take it off halfway and make a lotus flower shape? Of course, the most unacceptable thing is to have some one-night stands on the eve of the war (I immediately think of King Arthur-fortunately Aishwarya Rai never shoots intimate scenes, that scene is just "meaning")! Of course, to be honest, I don’t want the heroic Mr. F to die unexpectedly...

Hey, why can’t the little emperor go back to be his Roman emperor even though he has already won the battle? Although it may be more famous to be the father of the heroes of Great Britain, he always calls himself Caesar, doesn't he?

Aurelius’s friends always have to die one or two to be considered a war, but Aurelius was beaten so badly that he could not die...

Also, after watching "Rome" for a long time, I still can’t get used to Kevin McKidd, who is clearly a "Roman". Turned out to be the villain barbarians.

After Romulus threw the Excalibur to the stone, he realized that it was a story about the "Excalibur in the Stone". His son turned out to be King Arthur... But I couldn't imagine that Thomas Sangster would grow up. There is a son like Clive Owen (Arthur in "King Arthur")!

(Not important) ps I can’t see exactly where Rupert Friend is...

The Last Legion quotes

  • [on the morning of the battle]

    Aurelius: If we don't live to see tomorrow...

    Mira: Nothing will ever part us.

  • Aurelius: My friends, we've all seen many mornings like this one. Together we've watched the sun rise, and not known if that day would be our last. Some comrades I've seen, scarcely out of boyhood, trembling before their first battle.

    Demetrius: It was a cold morning, Commander.

    Aurelius: That it was, Demetrius. And you men of the Ninth Legion, all of us, together we have fought all our lives for the Empire our ancestors created, and together we have watched that Empire crumble to dust. And with its fall we have lost two friends. I can tell you that in the darkest moments, I came to believe that there was nothing left to fight for. But I've been shown, through the wisdom of others, that there is one more battle to be waged, against tyranny and the slaughter of innocents. Let us defend to the last breath this island of Brittania, against those who would tear out its heart and soul! And then those who come after us l remember that there was such a thing as a Roman soldier, with a Roman sword, and a Roman heart!

    [draws sword]

    Aurelius: Hail, Caesar!

    All: Hail, Caesar!
