5.0 out of 5 stars Epic historical drama Nov 28 2012
By lotara
Format:DVD
This follow up to Pillars of the Earth takes place 200 years later, so it's a new cast, and a great group of actors including Miranda Richardson, Cynthia Nixon and Ben Chaplin. A great watch for fans of historical fiction, though decidedly different from the novel.

1.0 out of 5 stars Read the book instead Nov 25 2012
Format:DVD
This is the sequel to Ken Follett's highly acclaimed book, "Pillars of the Earth", set 200 years later, in 15th century England. In book form, World Without End is a powerful epic novel. Unfortunately, the series is a heavy-handed, bizarre version in which the violence has been dialed up to the point where the story is about two serial killers and a sociopath. It has all the brutality of the series "Rome" with none of its wittiness or depth. It is arguably the worst British mini-series ever made. A brilliant British cast has been supplemented with American actors (Cynthia Nixon) whose accents are so bad that it's like listening to nails on a chalkboard. Despite the lurid rape scenes and scores of hanged men and women and blood galore, I was bored by the story, which made no sense after the characters and events were altered beyond recognition for no particular reason. Example: Sir Thomas Langley is actually the deposed king. And Petranilla is actually Ralph's mother. And Godwin kills a bunch of people and nobody asks any questions. Really? Come on! My advice is to read the book and give this series a big miss.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous story Jan 1 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The visuals and effects were amazing - I couldn't stop watching, and actually watched the entire series in one day. Some of the scenes made me gasp out loud - shocking, stunning and wonderful!
