Movie Reviews of Julius Caesar
Movie Review: It's a movie, not a documentary!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I believe that this movie is very historically accurate. When I saw this movie, I didn't know anything about Pompey. About all I knew about Caesar was from reading Shakespeare's play and seeing a couple old movies about him. But, after watching the movie, I read some information by Plutarch and encyclopedia articles about the people in the movie, and I saw one fact after another that were in the movie. Some of the reviewers who gave negative ratings need to remember that this is a movie, not a documentary. I'm sure that no matter how accurate producers, directors, actors, etc. try to make a historical movie, there will always be mistakes. After all, this all happened over 2,000 years ago and we don't exactly have newsreels of the events or t.v. interviews with the people.Movie Review: Teacher Pick Julius Caesar
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a 10th grade English teacher and found the TNT version of Julius Caesar to be both entertaining and educational. Advice to teachers: show this video before reading the play. It will give the students the background they need to better understand what was going on in Rome at the time. Also, they will become more emotionally attached to Caesar with prior knowledge about his rise to power. With that knowledge, they will be better judges of whether or not Brutus and the conspirators were justified in what they did. Caesar is murdered so early in the play. Students rarely care, wondering why the play is even called "Julius Caesar." You'll find that after viewing the TNT version, the students will have an opinion about whether or not it was right to kill Caesar.Movie Review: Teaching Julius Caesar in ELA II
Summary: 5 Stars
I was pleasantly pleased with the angle from which this film was crafted. Although the play "Julius Caesar" does not cover the historical content covered in the film, it can sometimes be considered "boring" to tenth grade students. This action-packed, contraversial view of Caesar's life was just what I needed in my classroom in order to keep the teenage mind interested. I had the students answer questions regarding the films content as they watched, and they actually enjoyed it...more so than just reading the play or viewing one of the films offered by the school library.Movie Review: Inspiering historical movie
Summary: 5 Stars
One of few historical movies that is realy historical.
Based on real historical evidence represents a true history of ancient Rome. Troy movie was a disaster, full of mistakes and failures, but, Julius Caesar is a rather positive movie. With great cast and incredible scenery, it makes Julius Caesar must-see movie. And most incredible of everything is that is TV production.
Buy your self a Julius Caesar DVD as soon as possible, grab a beer, a bowl of popcorn and enjoy history taking place in your very living room.
Movie Review: Vini Vidi Vici!
Summary: 5 Stars
This feature was very beautifully done, with a great script and a stellar performance from some B+ list actors. As a lover of Rome, I found the story to be very historically accurate, which is always a nice thing for a history geek like me. Furthermore, the script was so full of depth and heart that I actually found myself crying at Caesar's death. It takes a lot for a tragedy to still make someone cry when they know what's coming, yet "Julius Caesar" achieved it.
