About this product

Product Information

A generously budgeted show jointly produced by HBO and the BBC, ROME takes viewers back to 52 BC for a chance to relive the reign of Julius Caesar. The first season revolves around the lives of two Roman soldiers, Lucius Vorenus (Kevin McKidd) and Titus Pullo (Ray Stevenson), who win favor with Caesar (Ciaran Hinds) by defeating a mutinous plot from the devious Pompey Magnus (Kenneth Cranham). This affords the two men a gateway into the lives of Rome's ruling classes, and so the season unfolds, with intricately woven plots, fine acting, and stunning recreations of the ancient city, to provide a thoroughly engrossing television show. Details have been painstakingly pored over to ensure accuracy, so both history buffs and viewers less versed in the ways of Caesar should find something to enjoy here. This release contains the entire first season of the show.

Great series!
I watched this 2-year series when it first aired on HBO years ago. I was glued it. Fabulous historical story, great acting, great scenery. Even if you're not a history buff, I think you will enjoy Rome.

Rome, the HBO series
When I die, I would like to be able to return and view the human struggle first hand by traveling through time and space. As a history buff, I was disappointed in Hollywood's rendition of events in the past that resonate throughout time. This collection of "Rome" depicts a more authentic scenario and richer panorama than previous films and thus earns my praise. Some of the dialogue however, seems contemporary but the portrayal of the double speak transcends language. Obviously, Romans spoke in latin and much is lost in the translation but the human aspect of what life was at that time (they were THE first world) is depicted fairly accurately imho. The wardrobe is quite accurate and the urban sprawl probably resembles more accurately what it was like in 1st century BC. So ...

Hopefully, the sequels will keep the faith and not become a costly soap opera. Just IMHO.

Slightly Flawed, but still Great!
This is my review of 'Rome'. I ordered it sight-unseen. When it came I was pleasantly surprised to find a very rugged box which opened in a manner that gave absolute protection to its contents. I wished every boxed set came like this. Inside was the usual fold-out box containing the discs, as well as a small booklet. Overall I would give it an extra star just for the packaging. First, it was not as historical as I would have liked. They seem to have had trouble finding a strong, self-serving female character to match what is written about succeeding generations (Julia Livia, Valeria Messalina and Agrippina the Younger), so they took two fairly ordinary women and made them into earlier counterparts. History records very little about Atia, mother of Gaius Octavias, and Servilia, mother of ... This is my review of 'Rome'. I ordered it sight-unseen.

They seem to have had trouble finding a strong, self-serving female character to match what is written about succeeding generations (Julia Livia, Valeria Messalina and Agrippina the Younger), so they took two fairly ordinary women and made them into earlier counterparts. History records very little about Atia, mother of Gaius Octavias, and Servilia, mother of Marcus Brutus, as respectable and pious women. On the other hand where would the fun be in that? And 'Rome' is meant to be fun. Brutal, decadent, violent and dirty fun, but fun nonetheless. What it does tell of historic events, from the struggle between Caesar and Pompey to the final fight between Octavius and Marcus Antonius, it weaves a tale of intrigue and war covering the fall of the Republic to the creation of the Empire, and it weaves it very well. All the characters get plenty of air time, and all remain true to their belief in Mother Rome. They just have different feelings about how that belief could be best fulfilled. My only other complaint would be about the major battles. They are rarely seen onscreen, and when they are it's usually wrong. That said, the local tactics, how the soldiers actually did the fighting, is carefully explained. It seemed odd to me, but it didn't diminish my enjoyment of the show itself. The two main "fictional" characters, Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo, were real people, and the only "average" men mentioned by Caesar in his own writings. They are only mentioned once, in reference to an action the two carried out, so the characters we get here are indeed wholly fictional. That said, they help carry the story along and show what life was like for the common Roman citizen. I started with the "bad". My complaints really are minor, and the good of the show far outweighs the bad. For me the best part of the boxed set was the extras on the discs. There is a feature called 'All Roads Lead To Rome'. It enables an onscreen explanation for much of the action. When a character makes an offering to a god it tells you who that god was and why and how offerings were made. When a major historical character takes an action it tells you more about what was going on, what they said, what they did and what they wrote about it afterwards. I have many complaints, all of them minor, but overall 'Rome' is well written, well directed, well acted, well packaged and well worth the money.

Rome is the best of HBO's history based series.
I have watched Rome from the beginning and could not wait to add the DVDs to my home collection. I am looking forward the Complete Second Season. I think the writing is very well done. I particularly enjoy the role the women play in manipulating history. The acting is great. The scenery and costumes are fantastic. Every episode has left me surprised - it is amazing how unpredictable the characters and stories can be even though it is about the Roman history. I like the little side stories and twists. I recommend purchasing the Rome series.I have watched Rome from the beginning and could not wait to add the DVDs to my home collection. I am looking forward the Complete Second Season.

Buying for less than retail
I had watched Rome on HBO last year and really enjoyed the production quality, story line and the acting, I guess I'm a fan! Wanted to buy a copy but just couldn't push myself to pay $79.95 plus tax at the local retailer, so I decided to have a look on E-Bay I had heard about some great deals some people had made and decided to check it out on this vid. It took me awile but I found my way around and bought a new never opened copy for $42.00, wow almost half price. I'm sorry if this sounds like an advertisment, it's not but on this deal it worked out great for me.
