for long time, for me was a strange film. one of reasons - the political message, against independence and freedom and homage to the invader. the second - Jacques Sernas in the clothes of same role - the stranger with good intentions , prisoner on hostile country and the love story who must explain all. not the last, the snakes, John Drew Barrymore being reduced at a sketch of character, puzzle of clichés. the virtues - the fight scenes, not real different by the other sword and sandals films of the period , and the rediscover of a not well known episode from the history of Roman Republic. but, more important, without be impressive, it is a decent history film. and this is a good thing.
