Unbelievably stupid
31 January 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Based on two episodes:

Juist like in some of the earlier Netflix 'documentaries', the amount of historical inaccuracies, important developments neglected and abuse of (proably previously recorded) expert contributions are astounding. Just three to start with:"

1) No attention to why Macedon became dominant in Greece and was able to attack the Achaemenid Persion empire.

2) No mention of military tactics, the innovations of the phalanx etc.

3) No discussion of alternative sources or different interpretations of historical sources.

Add to that: ridiculous acting in and scripting of 're-enactments' and an insane narration by somone pretending to be an Egyptian priestess.

Nonsense. -1 star.
