Customer Reviews of Rome - Power & Glory
Entertaining and Educational I would recommend this collection to anyone with any interest in history. Everyone in my family enjoyed it. The costumes and scenery are great and the stories are interesting. It's very educational for those of us who don't have a degree in history.
A lot of good points, but they could at least disguise the repetition
This documentary is rather comprehensive, and it is interesting. It has a lot of interesting commentary, not always relying on "historians" but also on experts in different fields being examined.

>But, as other reviewers have said, it's very repetetive. When you are watching 5 hours worth, you kind of expect that they would have cut as much as they could have, but they didn't. It is, however, difficult to not repeat things when you are trying to make logical points, as this documentary does. The problem is, they don't even try to pretend that they aren't saying the same things. They will use the exact same words to describe it, they will show the same video clips, etc. And, sometimes they use the same video clip for several different events, making it feel like a less-interactive real-time-strategy computer game.
no romulus and remus
i came upon a magazine called history today it was an article about an archaeologist named simon leaphead who said the story of romulus and remus may have historical basis in a tale of two brothers named osto and mosto who lived in the year 6000 .B.C. this article was published two years before the documentry iam reviewing was released the filmakers could have interviewed mr.leaphead in a part of the documentry about romes origins but they didn`t they just talked about the empire like everyone else does they could have at least talked about THE ROMAN REPUBLIC`S HISTORY. am i right
