A solid conclusion to Plebs, nicely rounding off the adventures of three lovable losers in Ancient Rome.

Marcus, Grumio and Jason enlist in the military with hopes of an easy ride, societal perks, and most importantly, no conflict. Of course, this is short lived as they are marched to the north of Europe to battle Barbarians. Naturally, the uptight Marcus does not assimilate well, unlike his slave and conflicted friend. After a farce in the face of conflict, the trio look to survive long enough to return home.

Most likely to capture attention of those who watched the series, the comedy here does not stray away from the fan-favourite incredulity of Marcus in response to the dozy idiocy of Grumio, supported by the positive womanising of Jason. It stays true to it's series-long approach and values, and moves at a great pace, keeping a simple plot interesting throughout. An easy watch, and a great sendoff for the trio of Plebs.

I was surprised that plebs got a movie. And I am so happy they did as this is the ending us fans were looking for. Jason, marcus and grumio are back once again. Marcus has his 30th birthday coming up and does not know what to do with this milestone. Grumio is eating as always and jason comes up with a plan to bag him some woman, that being them enterting as roman soliders, but little do they know that they soon will have to soon actually fight. Theres a lot of fun just like in the show, and grimios antics especially always make me laugh. It translated to movie really well and it was overall a fun thing to watch. A nice but sad in a way ending.

In the 1950s, using a comedy ensemble to make fun of war was a huge deal. A worldwide trend, in fact. This effort brings to mind the "CARRY ON" series that was a hit in England 3/4 of century ago. Nothing is to be taken seriously, there is no danger or jeopardy for the leads at any point, everything can and will be turned into a joke, and each character is a stereotype of some kind. There is nothing wrong with this type of film, there is indeed a market for it, but praising it as if were a sequel to MATRIX or LORD OF THE RINGS is pushing the envelope just a mite. Forgettable, light, frothy and fun. That's what your ticket gets you. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."
