I'm a picky sort of person. If I see something historically incorrect in a movie then I complain - aloud. There was very little to complain about in this film. For example, Hollywood will INSIST on showing horsemen of this period using modern stirrups whereas these were not known until a bit later (horsemen on the later FEL TEMP REPARATIO coins of Antioch are shown using a rudimentary stirrup). But this film shows the riders are they were - no stirrups. Also the cuirasses of the emperors and caesars ... Read More

However, I did enjoy the story and it is still watchable. Hopefully, some day they will release a better reproduction of this ... Read More

Most of the movie centers around political intrigue between Constantine and those in Rome who want to usurp his power and prestige. There is a good amount of Roman battle scenes (Civil war). A very small part of the movie is also taken up fighting the barbarians.
However, it is a good example of just what Christian Martyrs by the tens of thousands had to endure (death) before Constantine came on the scene. Some here say that it is not factual. Yet evidence from antiquity is strong that Constantine ... Read More

The Roman Emperor Constantine who was responsible for making Christianity the official religion of the previously pagan Roman Empire has strangely enough been rarely the subject of movies set in Roman times. While this early 1960's Italian produced epic does play around heavily with historical fact, in particular with the details of Constantine's personal life and character, it does however make an earnest attempt to retell many of the significant historical moments in the period of Constantine's battle to become ...
