  • "Rome has become the mightiest empire the world has even known and Julius Caesar holds absolute dominion over the conquered world. But his jealous rivals in the Roman senate want his power. Led by Cassius and reluctantly joined by Brutus, the conspirators secretly plot to assassinate Caesar. Appalled by the murder of his mentor, Mark Antony declares war on Caesar's assassins and the empire is divided as the ruling forces ignite an epic war for honor, vengeance, and ultimate power."@en
  • "The story covers the highlights of Caesar's life including his exile during the rule of the cruel dictator Sulla, his patronage under the capable General Pompey, his brutal but victorious campaigns against Vercingetorix and the Gauls, and his love affair with the beautiful and scheming Egytian queen Cleopatra. Caesar's great ambition ultimately lead to his own murder by members of the Roman Senate who fear his ascendency, but ironically bring about the rise of the Empire. There are many political complexities that are touched upon in this film that give a good idea of the kinds of power plays that lead to Caesear's rise and fall, many of them including betrayal and murder. The film depicts the Gallic Wars in good detail and gives an understanding of the turmoil that faced the Roman Republic in its last years before the rise of the Empire. Caesar is portrayed as a intelligent human figure who is struck down by tragedy and overcome with amibition which ultimately leads to his own death. The irony of Caesar's murder is that it was ostensibly to preserve the Republic, but rather hastened the foundation of the Empire. While not a great movie, it is entertaining and provides a good introduction to Roman history as well."@en
