Centurion
A loyal soldier of Rome
Only wants to get home
When a surprise attack
Leaves them stranded, wrecked.
Gathering survivors
He formulates a plan
Rescue their commander,
Then find the nearest garrison.
The Picts will not rest
Until each soldier is lifeless!
Neither side will relinquish,
All those who oppose must be extinguished!
Born to be a leader
Quintus will fight until the grave
Because everybody knows,
Being a legend gets you laid!

Saw it... Very similar to another flick that came about the same time, "The Eagle"... It obviously made a positive impression on you, from which you have engendered positive results. :)

...wish the Picts woulda killed 'em all! F the Roman Empire! Roman heads on pikes from Gaul to Hibernia! (sorry I get a little passionate about history!)
