"As the Roman Empire crumbles, young Romulus Augustus flees to England to find a legion of supporters. The story could have been a good one; the crossover between the mighty Roman Empire and the mystic legend of Camelot is simply fascinating. However, The Last Legion is desperately stuck in mediocre ground by taking itself much too seriously and choosing a style that is totally unsuitable for its economic resources that leads to messy and clumsy visuals. The waste of a big cast must also be highlighted."
