Its full of sex, violence, drugs, corruption and blood, what more can you want. This series is fantasitic but its only a mini mini mini series stops after season 2 because of HBO not making a decent profit. This is such a mistake of HBO to make as it is so addictive.
ANYWAYS, to the point, Rome is amazing: the acting, the setting and great historial facts about Rome and Gaius Julius Caeser. It starts of with two characters Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pollo both serving in the Roman legion, having finished the war against the Gauls, Mark Antony gives Vorenus the order to find the stolen "Eagle Standard" hence the journey of Pollo and Vorenus begins .
It depicts the reality of what went on in Roman times, murder, rape, stealing and slavery, and the rise and fall of Caeser. All events are based on what historians believe is correct. It is worth watching the first episode, after that your gonna be wanting more, the whole family enjoyed it.
