 | Arrogant army officer Marcus Vinicius (Pawel Delag) returns to Rome from a successful campaign anxious for a little r&r, which is easily arranged by his uncle Petronius (Boguslaw Linda), witty author of "The Satyricon" and "arbiter of elegance" to the Emperor Nero (Michal Bajor). |
| Of the arena scenes, episode with the big cats is most impressive, as the felines look genuinely hungry and are shown in the same frame very realistically going at their human dinner. |
| As the ostensible hero Vinicius, Delag is younger, more virile and turbulent than Robert Taylor was 50 years before, although character behaves so abrasively that for a good stretch he verges on the entirely unsympathetic. |
