Swordfights, battles, and betrayal fuel The Last Legion, which tells the story of the last emperor of Rome: a 12-year-old boy who is a descendent of Julius Caesar. Protected by commander Aurelius (Colin Firth) and guided to an extent by the wizard Ambrosinus (Ben Kingsley), Romulus (Thomas Sangster) is an unlikely leader. Too inexperienced to rule wisely, he also shows little of the fortitude and courage needed to be a great warrior. After Romulus finds Caesar’s sword–the legendary excaliburnus – he begins a search for the fabled last legion that will help him save Rome.
