Great HBO Series

Created: 13/08/10
I have seen a lot of HBO series and by far this is one of my favorites. I have always been fascinated by this part of our world history and I love how HBO brought it to light. I read that the writers wanted to stay as true to actual events as possible and in my opinion they did a great job. All the actors were perfect choices for the roles they protrayed. James Pruefoy as Mark Anthony was so believable. The sets were great. Especially the Egyptian city scenes.I felt like I was watching a piece of history unfold right before my eyes. I want to catch the next flight to Rome so I can see everything up close. This is a must see series.

A Television Classic

Created: 03/01/11
I remember gobbling up the episodes from Blockbuster when it was originally released on DVD. The Blu-ray edition is absolutely stunning. This series is extremely well-written, superbly casted and the authenticity of the sets is one of the finest achievements in television history. I'm a history buff so I wish the series would have dwelt more on Caesar's military strategy and less on the social intrigue back in Rome but since the drama is so well done, it feels like quibbling. Vorenus and Pullo are one of the best dramatic "buddies" I can think of. I'm saving each episode and then going back to listen to the commentaries. Again, a remarkable achievement!

Worth It

Created: 25/01/11
In my opinion there is no greater historical series than "ROME". It was such a shame whne it ended after only two seasons. And there is no greater video format than BlueRay. This set is well worth the money!

probably the greatest tv series...ever

Created: 28/03/10
take the greatest series ever and release it on blu-ray and you have the recipe for the greatest buy for any media centre. add that the packaging for this is incredibly superb. the case of diskd opens like a book of roman history complete with a fabric book mark to mark where your last came from.

highly recommended.
