05/19/2013 well done! And if you've been there it's even better. :-) See more 05/05/2013 An interesting & seemingly historically accurate documentary dramatisation of that dreadful day August 24th 79 AD. It was amazing the power & impact of the volcano but more amazing how much was still intact due to ash & rock fossilising many of the people who never escaped. It explained it an easy manner & seemed scientifically significant as well. The people that filled Pompeii before impact was just as interesting. A very interesting documentary about the most incredible natural disaster of the last 2000 years. See more Jonathan G 02/07/2012 I really enjoy most educational documentaries about Pompeii. This docu-drama was good, but didn't shed any new light on things. Basically they fabricated some storylines from some notes the tried to piece together. There are far better things to watch on Netflix. Rating: 4/10 See more 04/01/2011 Fascinating history depicted visually. I can't wait to visit the actual ruins. See more 11/20/2010 I love how this page doesn't credit the star: F. Murray Abraham See more Read all reviews
