Julius Caesar Audience Reviews

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
arnoudwokke First of all: the trailer IMDB is showing on top of this page is not a right one; it's one from a very old movie instead. This is a great movie/miniseries on Julius Caesar. The facts are not way off - just a little bit for drama effect, but it's fictionalized after all. Most of the basic points are spot on. Most of all: the acting in this is great and the writing is amazing as well. The lines are memorable. It's long to watch - over 2,5 hours - but it's well worth it.
lilly_white_lillith Too bad they have the wrong video with this movie. You'd think they'd fix it.
sophie_lou21 Julius Caesar is a very good film and it is worth watching if you're a sucker for history--though it's not completely historically accurate, for example Cato being a member of the senate when Sulla was in charge when he was only a teenager and putting Julia, Portia, Brutus and Marcus' ages the same when Julia and Brutus were at least six years older then Portia and Marcus. It was also disappointing not to see Brutus' mother Servilia, who was the love of Caesar's life, missing out an extra tension between her brother Cato and Caesar as well as the crude rumours that Brutus was Caesar's bastard son...But otherwise, it's a great show...So, what about the characters, you ask? Well, Caesar you might hate if you can't stand winners but he's nice to watch as too is his lovely wife Calpurnia who is the second best character in this series giving us so very wonderful scenes--especially her last scene with Portia and the dying Caesar. As for everyone else, Pompey is such a big-headed dude who I wouldn't trust at all--good job Julia was there (who is nice but she's irritating.) Antony can be a bit annoying, Cassius' special subject is the obvious and he might get on your nerves (her certainly gets on Brutus') Marcus (Cato's son) is an overgrown baby but he is noble and very sweet--he gives us a lovely scene towards the end with Cato and he stands up to Caesar. Brutus is the sort of guy you want to pat on the head but it's hard to decide whether you like him or curse him, and then his wife/cousin Portia who admittedly spends most of her time standing next to him looking pretty, does a remarkable wordless scene when she stumbles across Brutus planning the murder of Caesar.So who is the one you want to watch this for, well, partly Richard Harris—who plays the villain Sulla very well considering he spends most of his time playing friendly, old heroes—but mostly, you watch it so see Christopher Walken who plays the amazing and hypnotic Cato, father of Portia and uncle of Brutus. Walken is by far the best actor in this show—his way of grabbing your attention just with one sentence is remarkable and he pulls off the noble, stubborn and grumpy Cato perfectly making this film worth watching just to see his tear jerking death scene acted to perfection with the moving soundtrack this film has.Overall, I advice to you watch this if you are one of those people who is a sucker for the Roman history.
sourjellybeans56 Oh my gosh. I love this movie. We watched most of it in one of my classes and I fell in love with Jeremy Sisto. He has the best voice ever! The acting was great. This was one of Richard Harris' finest performances, and just at the end of his life! I loved how in depth the movie went into the character of Caesar. It showed more about his personal life and family. It helped me realize that he wasn't some distant political ruler. He really cared for his wife and daughter. I didn't get to finish it but hopefully I'll be able to buy it and watch the rest, even though I already know how the story of Julius Caesar ends. This is definitely a movie I would watch multiple times, even if it was just for Jeremy Sisto!
