BEST FILM EVER!!!!

5 stars

11 Sep 2019

This movie was a really good movie because of the important message it gives you.

This movie is about a Celtic girl called Orla and a Roman boy called Atti. They come from opposite traditions but become friends due to Orla kidnapping Atti. Atti tries to get rich quick with various schemes, even upsetting Emperor Nero by selling him horse wee instead of gladiator sweat and gets sent to Britain to fight as a punishment.

Atti finds himself on the opposing side to Orla. Who will win and can their friendship survive?

I loved this film, it was funny, sad, exciting and educational. An amazing mix of emotions in the one film. I love the TV series but this feature length film was better. It certainly wasn't just a stretched out TV episode but a film in it own right. It was great having longer to get more details about the Rotten Romans.

Rattus Rattus appeared at the end to wrap it all up nicely!!
