I didn't care for "Quo Vadis" much at all. It's a slow-moving bison of a movie, waddling through its nearly three-hour run time with no apparent sense of haste or inspiration. Despite its epic scale — it still holds the record for most costumes used on a movie: 32,000 — it's often cheap-looking and fake, like the obvious matte paintings to depict ancient Rome.
