"Pythias, an Athenian liberal who believes all men are brothers, is taken in my the tyrant of Syracuse, though allowed a visit to his wife when Damon agrees to be taken in as hostage to guarantee his friend’s return. A weak spaghetti swords and sandal epic that represents the mediocrity of the genre’s standard."
