Quote:
Written by Jez Butterworth (Edge of Tomorrow, Spectre, Black Mass) the series will star Kelly Reilly (True Detective, Sherlock Holmes), David Morrissey (The Walking Dead, The Hollow Crown), Zoë Wanamaker (Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, My Family), Hugo Speer (The Musketeers, The Fully Monty), Nikolaj Lie Kaas (The Killing), Stanley Weber (Outlander), Eleanor Worthington-Cox (BAFTA nominated for Sky original drama The Enfield Haunting) and Ian McDiarmid (Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith, Utopia).

The drama begins in 43AD as the Roman Imperial Army – determined and terrified in equal measure - returns to crush the Celtic heart of Britannia - a mysterious land ruled by wild warrior women and powerful druids who can channel the powerful forces of the underworld. Arch rivals Kerra (Kelly Reilly) and Antedia (Zoë Wanamaker) must set their differences to one side in order to combat the terrifying Roman invasion, led by the towering figure of Aulus Plautius (David Morrissey) as it cuts a swathe through the Celtic resistance
The series is set to air on Sky 1 in the UK and Amazon Prime Video in the United States from 2017

Tbh it doesn't look as good as I hoped it would.

1) Everything looks too clean in the daylight. They could have used some filters or something at least..

2) The dialogues,well, could have been better..

We'll see how it turns out ..

PS What's this song?

It's not just the music though..There is something off about the whole video..

It looks too.."clean"? I dunno how to explain this.It doesn't look.. "real", maybe?.. Using different filters could actually make it look better.. And judging by the dialogues-monologues the writing is pretty amateurish.

Only watched e01 and so far the only good thing about it is David Morrissey
It's a bit like they're going for Spartacus style but the show just doesn't follow through properly

So, it turned out not to be like Spartacus at all. A LOT of focus on gods and prophecies, too much for my taste. There were some twists towards the end and you can see some bigger story arc forming. But overall I think it was merely average. The episode where the two romans found the hut of the ex-druid and got stoned was pretty good though.

First episode is absolute garbage, second not so good either.

I think by the third or fourth you realise what kind of direction they are going for, as Shocktrooper mentioned above - more gods and prophecies.

Then I think once you accept it for what it is - not Vikings, Rome or Spartacus and more fantasy, you can kind of get on board towards the end.

Definitely think it has been criticised unfairly, the last couple of episodes are actually not too bad.

About a 7/10 for me.
