Those About to Die reminds me very much of a BBC historical drama wrapped up with a 2010s Prince of Persia style Hollywood movie.
Some of the acting and dialogue is a tad painful to watch and the CGI is very ropey. The scenery itself is quite stunning, but, as a soon and chariots start racing, the often used panning out shot has the riders looking like Duracell Bunnies with whips.
The giant white lion, although impressive in size, is again underwhelming in it's overall appearance.
I did enjoy parts of the story but in general was left frustrated and irritated by alot of the character interaction.
A series with a lower first season budget like Vikings did alot better of a job drawing the audience into a historical timeline. Whilst adding drama, humour and excitement.
Not bad but could have been alot better.
