5.0 out of 5 stars excellent documentry series, May 25, 2005

This review is from: Ancient Warriors: Volume 1 (DVD)

Unfortunately a number of people have placed bad reviews for a completely unrelated movie on this listing. I gave it five stars to compensate for this, but honestly I would not have anything negative to say anyway (except perhaps that I wish the episodes where longer and that they made more of them). All the episodes are masterfully crafted and engrossing. The use of a singluar narrative following one character while overviewing their entire warrior culture was a great idea. It personolizes otherwise abstract historical occasions and gives you a feeling for what it would have really been like. A few episodes do stick out, such as "The Spartans" because it's simply such a great and inspiring story, and "The Ninja" (just because ninjas are so bloody cool). I hate to be a boring cliche, but this series is indeed both educational and entertaining. You won't be disappointed.

This review is from: Ancient Warriors: Volume 1 (DVD)

This film is poorly edited, the transfer to DVD is poor, and the actual picture is grainy - like they used cheap film to make it. The story is about a mercenary who is after another mercenary who killed his father; he is really bad because he is messing with chemical weapons and ancient European tombs (which explains the title).

Don't waste a minute watching this.
