    Sadly only a few movies about rome exist, And most of them are Full-of-BS Anti-rome. I Think you watched about all Movies about rome that worth watching (The eagle and centurion) and they'r both boring. When is the time will someone make a movie about rome that is similar to Alexander or The last samurai?

    back to recommendations. I'd suggest The last Legion. a pile of junk but atleast its about rome too

    Gladiator is one of the best movies ever made in my opinion. HBO's Rome isn't bad either.
    We the willing, led by the unknowing are doing the impossible for the ungrateful, we have done so much for so long with so little, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.

    Gladiator, Spartacus. Even one kind of King Arthur was about Roman soldiers in Brittania. It was quite a good film though.

    BBC`s Rome is the best thing to see.

    The classic movies (50s-60s) about Rome have great performances, but are full of historical nonsense. The most recent movies (Gladiator, centurion) are even worse, having as main focus appeal to the teen crowd.

    I watched Caligula and sufficed to say that I am now horrified and scared .
    The part of Tiberius' palace is absolutely scarring on the eyes and memory because you can't ing unsee things.

    Fall of the Roman Empire. Old movie, but fairly accurate.
