This movie takes us back to the 2nd century and tells the legends around the Ninth Legion and its (possible) dissappearance in Scotland.
The movie is very bloody and most of the time it feels overused. It never shocked me to see the blood because there was no clear point made as to why that is necessary. Of course there is the massacre of the Roman legion and the relentless hunting of the survivor however other movies have made a more lasting impact with way less blood.
Some things are left unclear. Some characters are turning sides and I never got to understand what made them do it. And that is also the largest weakness for me.
The movie was generally well paced but in the middle it felt a little slow and boring.
No recommendation.
