Viewers revisit ancient Rome through trips to the Forum, the Colosseum, and the Pantheon in this video. Historians and other experts share their thoughts on how the ancient Roman culture and society continues to influence modern life. Paintings help bring the city back to life, as well as recent location footage. Computerized graphics also provide insight into the full glory of many of the structures that now only exist in ruins. ~ Elizabeth Smith, Rovi

This "movie" (if it can be called that) is what you would find on the BBC at 3 am on a Sunday. From the repetitious reuse of the same still photographs used as a backdrop to the monotone of the narrator to the stereotypical bad teeth displayed by the British experts providing color, there is actually about five minutes of worthwhile information contained here. I guess I'm spoiled by NOVA, National Geographic and the History Channel as I would expect the footage in this photoplay wouldn't even be found on the cutting room floor of the "big 3".

Reasonably accurate on information, history, etc - but the computerized graphics were pathetic, lacked detail, often incorrect in scale, proportions.
