Caesar is average, like Pompey, but Mark Anthony is no good at all. I didn't like the cast, I think it could have been better.
The poor crossing of the Rubicon by twenty soldiers was disappointing...
It's strange that Caesar's rise to power was stretched out for 50 minutes, and his entire reign and death were put in two minutes. Where is it about what he actually did? Or are all Caesar's achievements, in the opinion of the creators, a usurpation of power?
It's interesting how they introduced the main characters. But there was no such thing in the Nero series. And in this series, it didn't play out in any way, why would you do that?

I don't understand the order in which the episodes should be watched. They seem to end with some kind of cliff, a hint of the future, but nothing in the next episode. And the chronology jumps.
Little Tiberius is so handsome, an adult doesn't look like him at all.
Poor Tiberius...A wife, a mother, even Maton...Everyone denied and doubted((

The nondescript Emperor Honorius was terribly unpleasant the whole movie. The face is familiar, as it turned out, I've already watched 2 TV series with this actor, but I still don't remember it. This doesn't usually happen to me.
At the end, there are very beautiful shots of the destroyed works of art.
Overall, the choice of the episode's theme is not the first time puzzling. If this is not the end of the empire, why show exactly that with words about the end..?

Yes, Konstantin seems, to put it mildly, not the best person. But it is recognized as equal-to-the-throne...Poor Constance((

Poor Licinius! I couldn't stop the growing Christian contagion! I couldn't bring Rome back to Jupiter! It's very sad.
