Romulus

Yes, I admit, for me it is one of the best series from the last decade. I am subjective, off course. But Romulus is just brilliant. For the wise use of the bricks of legends and myths. For the courage ad full virtue to use archaic Latin , giving high credibility to storytelling nd seducing generations of people for who this language represents a part of life and memories. For impecable acting - and I remind, again and again, the admirable job of Francesco Di Napoli and Marianna Fontana. Not the last for the escape from the circle of cliches. No doubts, a great series.

The fact alone that this entire show is in Latin is impressive, and that it don't slide into an overtly cheesy flow, like so many other historical shows, is also great.

I have no idea why so many people gave it a low rating. But people as a whole are stupid (the list of garbage shows with high viewer ratings is long), and often motivated to give their impression of shows from bias, and expectations that are silly.

So far I like the show a lot, ITunes needs to acquire it so I can give them money.

It is untraditional in a bold way, beautifully filmed, good acting. Costumes, scenography and nature play well together. Teeth and fingernails are yellow and black. It's raw and not very pretty, but at the time I think life was too. Please continue the good work, I would rather follow Romulus than so much else. I really hope there comes a season 2!!!

I'm honestly baffled. The show is masterfully done. The costumes, colors, cinematography, action sequences - everything is top notch. They even speak archaic latin!!! Acting is stellar, and the story is compelling - I was surprised a couple of times by the story going totally against clichés and being genuinely captivating, which is less and less common nowadays. I have no idea what's going to happen next (apart from the founding of Rome, obviously - but at this moment of a story, it's impossible to tell how exactly it'll unfold, which is great). I love it, and I appreciate an extremely hard work that must have gone into creating the series. Huge congratulations to all involved, the show is simply spectacular!! I'm hooked, I'll be watching and keeping my fingers crossed for season 2. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it, you won't be disappointed.

Having watched first two episodes.....(there are 8 more to come) I have to say I was hooked by this series which were a surprise to me as they were serious about re-telling the legend of the twins in a different light thru the eyes of three different people who lived in that era. the acting was good and serious and u get action scenes and the story before the twins are born. we get to see at first how ammulius becomes the king and tries to kill the sons of his blinded brother and former king of alba longa. there are also some naked beautiful sex scenes and beautiful women too in the mix. we only have two episodes but I think the rest will follow the story in the same captivating way. at some point ilia (rhea) the daughter of the former king will give birth to the twins and from there we will go on...... if u are a fan of ancient rome's history - mythology then u should watch this series which are ages better than the atrocious and boring "Britanica" tv series. on the plus is that even the audio is not in English nor in Italian BUT in archaic latin so to be more...realistic.

For starters I give this a grade between B- and B (7,5) and i'm excited for next week's episodes 3 and 4. there are two episodes each week. as it seems this is a worthy series about the twins so check it out.
