 WORTH BUYING AND WATCHING July 12, 2010
Paula C. Rodriguez
GREAT MOVIE EXCEPT IT IS IN POLISH. IF YOU DON'T MIND SUB TITLES THEN THE MOVIE IS WORTH WATCHING. IT IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE FIRST QUO VADIS SO IT IS NOT LIKE WATCHING A REPEAT.
Splendid May 20, 2010
Filiault Jean Claude (Montreal Canada)
Better and more complete then the first one with Robert Taylor.
Nice picture spacely in the forum.
Actor who play Nero great.
Rest of the cast superb

Some fairly short movies seem interminable, while some lengthy ones zip right along. For me, this was one of the latter, and I found my ignorance of Polish was not all that great a disadvantage. Pretty legible subtitles along with visual clues convey more than enough information to make sense of the action --the story, after all, is not all that complicated, and this is still primarily a spectacular, not a highly cerebral drama. I thought it outclassed the MGM film from 1951, which was entertaining enough.

Any viewer would immediately begin to compare it with the Hollywood epic of the past but in retelling the story the more youthful Polish actors are less stilted and plastic than Robert Taylor and Deborah Kerr. Or was that due to the screenplay? This version follows the novel much more closely and Nero does not dominate in the retelling even though I must admit I prefer Peter Ustinov's portrayal. The only major flaw is the rather disjointed language of the subtitles that makes the viewer figure out what was actually being said.
