Love a barbarian
20 August 2014
Today I watched decline of an empire (Katherine of Alexandria as the Brits called it)I don't quite understand why they changed the title even though it shows the fall of the Roman empire its clearly about the life of St. Katherine. The film boasts a colorful cast and and a good script, plus it's Peter o Tooles last film and a great performance as always. Without mentioning too much, I thought the trial scene was superb, and I found the Barbarian women amusing. I thought Nicole Kenniheart was great as Katherine and beautiful too. On the negative side, sometimes it gets a bit confusing and jumps to different scenes that makes you feel something was omitted. Overall, a good film with religion action and fun.

If your looking for a film with blood and gore and fight scenes like from Gladiator then this film is not for you.
