Sorry to say;Wrong legion depicted in the film

Rating: Null/10 (29 January 2008)

Legio IX Hispania was only in Britain into the middle of the 2nd century, and most likely was destroyed in Judea around during Hadrians reign. How was the 9th selected for the movie?
The II Augusta was the remaining legion in Britain in 407 after the VI Victrix was recalled to Gaul in 402. The II Augusta was the last legion in Britain, with some remaining auxiliaries, and calvary units.
But for the historical inaccuracy, I've watched the movie 3 times, and each time enjoyed it. Marucs Antoninus (Colin Firth) plays a good Aurelius Ambrosius(presumed father of Uther Pendragon.
It's interesting that this film and that of the 2002 movie 'King Arthur'. both battle in out near Hadrians wall.....Hummmm.
Ciao!
