Thank the gods I didn't pay to rent this. Obviously intended as a cheap T&A knockoff of GLADIATOR, this flick is lamer than your average episode of Xena.A bunch of Amazonian warriors hide in the woods outside Rome, intent on battling the mighty Roman army. They revel in their sisterhood, which would be fine if this was a woman's rights movie instead of a sexploitation flick. The only things viewers are asked to revel in are fur covered push-up bras and midriff bearing outfits (hardly the best protection against the brutal weather). But this isn't a skin flick, my friends. It's a badly scripted, badly acted, B movie. Cleavage is a secondary consideration.My favorite piece of cheesy dialog, and it's difficult to single out one exchange in a movie rife with it, occurs between the Amazon leader and the newest arrival.Leader: "Your training begins tomorrow." New arrival: "What training?" Leader: "Amazon training." Need I say more?

call me whatever you want, but i think this is a waste of time. not that i don't like the idea, but this depiction of the amazon myth is a poor one. and i have seen better. the story was poor, the acting was atrocious. it has all the elements of a failed movie right from the start. if you want to make a good amazon movie, at least try to have some sense in the way the story is told, or you will do like i did and walked out at the half of it. the only good thing about this movie are some of the actresses. sad to say, but i think this movie is a sorry attempt at making women feel in control. and a note to the director of this movie: if you try to direct your own work, it is bound to end up in flames right from the start. too much subjectivity will ruin a good idea. :-(

'Historically inaccurate' doesn't even begin to describe this. Nor does 'terrible'.The only reason anybody's given so far for watching it is the scantily clad young women. Frankly you see as much in a Meat Loaf music video. And the acting's better...

If you expect a movie like The Gladiator, or Spartacus you will be very disappointed. The two films I mentioned in the former sentence pay a lot more respect to the historical facts. The voice-over in this film starts with the text: Around 60 AD the Roman empire was at his highest peak both geographical and economical. At the end of the film, a decade of years later on the decline of Rome is announced. But if you don't mind this simplistic lecture you can have a nice time watching for the juicy and well bosomed women (Amazons).
