4 out of 5 Shovels
Television show that combines Roman conquest of Briton with magic, courage, and politics. After his family is killed by the Romans, Conor bands together friends in order to unite the various Celtic tribes. Only together will the natives be able to overthrow Rome on their island.
With Queen Diana and the cursed Longinus on the side of Rome, Conor has many challenges ahead of him.
The acting was superb. Actors like Heath Ledger, John Saint Ryan, Lisa Zane, Vera Farmiga, Alonzo Greer, and Melissa George kept this series serious and intense.
Cinema Photography was beautiful and captured the dichotomy between nature and conflict. The characters were original and fascinating, especially: Fergus, Caitlin, Tully, and Molly (Fergus’s daughter).
This DVD set has all 13 episodes, including 5 episodes not shown on network television. A good series that lasted one season but could have lasted more
