Who Cares About the Romans Anyway?

Rating: 1/10 (17 August 2010)

I Loved Dog Soldiers, but I absolutely hated this film! The director tried to pull a story out of a magic hat that never worked, nor did I give a rat's 'patoot' about the hero.
The depiction of the Picts was based on Roman accounts and the Romans were notorious for making things up about their enemies to get other conquered tribes to joins their battles and or to 'make excuses' for losses or military blunders. I still can't believe that a lot of historic accounts are based on Roman accounts and are now referred to as accurate.
For some obscene reason Brit writers and directors seem obsessed by the Romans, but I find it boring.
