Continuity: When Gordian is lying on the ground in the arena and Marcus is above him with this sword waiting for the Emporer's decision if Gordian is to live or die, Gordian is first shown with his shirt lifted up completely bear-chested. The the next scene he is totally covered by his shirt.

Another SCI-FI CGI Channel DUD!

Another stoopid Sci-Fi channel "HOTDRAGQUEEENCGIMESS!!!" no humor no dialog soap-opera channel acting. They said we'll do a Cyclops movie make it around roman times get in on that whole 300 thang. This is bad, its just bad, there's nothing here no excitement no thrills. The CYBORG escapes like 20 frikin times all from the same mistake over and over. Foolish Drunk Romans teasing it. So throw a tarp over it, it'll think its night then sleep until the big gladiatorial event. ANyhoo the Cyclops just runs around ripping up roman slaves in unimaginable ways. You've seen enough roman movies to guess the ending. I got this movies because i wanted to see how they did the whole roman armor. i wasn't disappointed at all it was good and in different variety too. But if I watched this for the movie I'd be beside myself with anger.
