"Roma" season 1 / Douban score 9.0 points
The first season of "Roma", with a total of 12 episodes, is a very famous American drama and a drama that is well received by the majority of fans of heavy films. The first quarter invested 100 million yuan in that year, the cost is not high, and it is also a large investment that has the later classic Rome.
In 52 BC, the Roman Republic was at its height, with the consul Pompeii sitting on the capital and his ally Caesar conquering Gaul. During this period, the 13th Army made many military achievements, the main general Ulinas was brave and strategic, and his subordinate Polo, although drunk as a life, was loyal and courageous. When Caesar was victorious, Octavian obeyed his mother's orders to go to the front line to comfort him, not wanting to be robbed on the way, and was saved by Ulinas and Polo, who passed by. The 13th Legion triumphed, and Urinas met his wife, who had been separated for 8 years, but had different thoughts. Polo stumbles upon the fact that Urinas' wife, Red Apricot, is out of the wall, and in order to protect the honor of the governor, Polo, with the help of Octavian, forces out the truth. Caesar was ready to monopolize power and waited for the right moment. Pompeii saw his ambition and consulted with the Senate, among whom the aristocratic forces, led by Cicero, insisted that Caesar should be killed as a traitor to the Republic. At this time, Caesar's general Antony took over as a protector and began to negotiate with Pompeii and his gang...
Compared with Spartacus, who had seen it ten years ago, "Roma" has a higher level of understanding of the historical background, the former has a relatively simple plot and can basically be watched as an entertainment drama, and the latter is much more complex in contradictions and conflicts. Brush up the first season in one go - the top of the well-deserved American drama history drama. The driving force of Caesar's death was a woman, cleopatra actually green Caesar? The beginning of all kinds of magic is for everyone to appreciate.
"Roma" season 2 / Douban score 9.0 points
The second season of "Roma" consisted of 10 episodes and was released in 2007. It is the last installment in the Roma series.
In 52 BC, 400 years after the founding of the Roman Republic, Rome had become the richest city in the world, a cosmopolitan metropolis with a population of 1 million, and the center of a fledgling empire. The Roman Republic was based on the sharing of rights and fierce competition among individuals, and never allowed for individual dictatorship. But the foundations of the principles of these republics are gradually collapsing under the pervasive corruption and moral decay. The ruling class was extravagant and profligate, and the traditional Spartan precepts and unity were gone. Class contradictions worsened, the legal and administrative systems weakened, and power was gradually controlled by the military.
The scene is magnificent and the picture is beautiful. Love and hate, lust and sex, blood and bone, base and decay. Such a good historical drama is a pity that it has only been filmed for two seasons. This American drama that likes film and television dramas in the cold weapon era cannot be missed. Of course, those who like the theme of yellow storms, this is also a better film.
