Almost as good as the original book

I remember the first time, almost 10 years ago when i was reading the same title book,from Valerio Massimo Manfredi, i was wondering, if there was going to be a film adaption, for this interesting book. Of course they had to skip a few things,as they do almost in every book-to-film adaption, but even if you watch the film, without reading the original script first, it is a complete story and you wont be disappointed. Especially for people loving this history period, i am almost sure that they will find interesting and enjoyable.Maybe, indeed, a few historical inaccuracies are here,cant say for sure, but even there are a few, i could easily overlook them.

I don't know if there was already a myth including a Roman Emperor with this famous Sword, but, in my opinion, even a final twist like this, can be a pleasant surprise!

As far as the cast concerns, i would say that the casting selection was a nice one, and i think that each and every one of them fulfilled my expectations.
