This series is very entertaining....but. The "but" admonition is awarded because of the mistreatment of historical facts and characters. What follows is a "maybe" in the spoiler category because I have no idea how much information is allowed without incurring the wrath of IMDb. 1 example, the idiotic portrayal of Tsar Nicholas, his son and their relationship is....idiotic? It's idiotic because the Czar's son was a hemophiliac and the Tsar doted on him because of it. (BTW, the guy who plays the Czar? Did they TRY to find a guy that looked NOTHING like Nicholas? Nicholas was a small man, no taller than 5' 6" and 140# in weight) The Tsar was famous as a great family man, spoiling his children, especially his son, the Czarevitch. This is a factual misrepresentation of small importance but it does paint the Czar as someone he wasn't for no apparent reason. Now, there are several small errors like this throughout which seems to be "much ado about nothing" BUT, when you add them all up.(?) they become one very major and film spoiling cluster duck which leaves me to award 6 stars. So if you know history as I do you may think "6 stars was overly generous trlrprkcon". If you don't? You will learn many salient facts about the Europe of 1914,, why it went to war in 1914 and be entertained all at the same time.
