Historically, this is all over the place. It's a sort of "Decline and Fall..." (also 1964) meets "Quo Vadis" (1951) with the handsome, but really hammy, Lang Jeffries in the lead role of "Quintus" trying to hold together a really weakly scripted and directed muddle. To be fair, the production looks quite good and there is plenty of swordplay and colourful action, it's just that acting is as stiff...
