Unlike some of the other reviewers I did watch the whole series. I up-rated it a little because I use a slightly lenient scale for sandal epics and fantasy. Most of the acting is perfectly okay. Sets, costumes, and props are good. The plot twists are predictable, but standard fare. The consistent effort to provide a setting that's coherent (sets, costumes, etc.) made it work, for me. If you don't expect it to connect with the famous epic, there's less to complain of.
