About this movie

Atti is a Roman teenager with brains but very little brawn. When one of his schemes falls foul of Emperor Nero, Atti is forced to join the army and is sent to miserable, cold, wet Britannia where the natives are revolting - quite literally. Things go from bad to worse when Atti is captured by Orla, a feisty teenage Celt and he uses his Roman smarts to help save her grandmother. Meanwhile a furious Nero has ordered more troops to crush the rebellion, led by Boudicca, warrior Queen of the Iceni tribe. Atti rejoins his fellow Romans and as the armies prepare for an historic showdown at the Battle of Watling Street, the two new friends find themselves on opposite sides of the battlefield.

Ratings and reviews

The original TV show was genuinely funny and witty. The humour is this movie was forced. Ok for kids I suppose, but not as good as I had hoped. Should the Horrible Histories crowd make another movie, I just hope it is better than this effort

It was a great family friendly movie and I recommend to horrible historie fans out there

Awesome film. I loved it! I hope they make another one xx
