    Gruesome
  

*by V***D on Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2013*

This was DVD was enlightening. It's historical content was indeed, very educational. The facts, however, reveal how gruesome the Olympics were for the participants. It is no wonder how they lost favor for so many years. The revival of this sports event eliminated the barbaric nature of the initial efforts. Watch this DVD, as I did, only once.

    Review from Oz
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2004*

A compilation of three documentaries "The First Olympics", "Blood and Honour at The First Olympics" and "The Greek Gods". It consists mainly of the same archival film footage used over and over again in "The Real Olympics",  "The Games for The Gods" and "The Ancient Greek Olympics" with different narration and contradictory "facts" gleaned from a few historical writings and some Greek Pottery and then integrated with an enormous amount of  hypothetical supposition and personal opinions from so-called "experts".I quote "expert" Ann Stewart (Professor College Year in Athens) "The important thing for a man to do was marry a virgin and produce children. The only way to keep virgins was the practise of homosexuality, and so it was encouraged." That's great. It leaves us with a mental picture of young Adonis screwing his friend so that he can keep little Aphrodite for a rainy day. And of course his friend obligingly "rolls over" and lets him because "Well that's what friends do for each other. Don't they?".I thought I  must have reached the bottom of the bucket with this little spark of absurdity, however from there on in it's downhill all the way with such little gems as " Women had to be "tamed" for marriage, and the best way women could be "tamed" was to show them naked athletes". And it just goes on and on.The actual film footage is quite good but this is not a disk to buy.
