I decided to do a review of the first five pages of all the scripts, and come back to the script and do a full review if the first five pages made me want to read it. I decided to start with the scripts that had not already received some reviews.
I read the original script and the Amazon Studio Story Department notes and am using my personal interpretation of what they intended only.
Pros: Caracalla was an excellent choice for emperor, he was such a real life character that I have been surprised that no one else went that direction. He is well drawn with great over-the-top lines like They're just slaves, I can get more. a spoiled baddie that an actor would love to play.
Cons: Some heavy description and unfilmable action lines more suited to prose than a screenplay such as Something is wrong and Verica knows it.
rewrite
Pros: Titus appears in the beginning.
Cons: He is no more developed than in the first, it lacks significant action.
