The story of the Egyptian Pharaoh, one of the most renowned leaders in human history. This ambitious special-event series tells the story of Tut’s rise to power and his struggle to lead Egypt to glory, while his closest advisers, friends and lovers scheme for their own nefarious interests. “Tut” opens up a fascinating window into a world filled with heart-breaking romance, epic battles, political backstabbing, conspiracy, jealousy, and even murder — proving his world was not far removed from our own — and that his reign as the youngest Egyptian king played out as a real-life drama for the ages.

Reviews

Mia Rowantree The producers of this show must have gone through a lot of trouble to find the whitest actors of color on earth. Ancient Egyptians were either black or possibly middle-eastern, i.e much like today. Tutankhamun's death mask show distinct African facial features and all depictions show him and the people around as having brown skin. Since there is no shortage of talented black or middle-eastern actors this can only be described as good old fashioned white wash, like a modern 'Lawrence of Arabia'.It bothered me so much that I didn't make beyond 7.42 minutes, because in combination with the really bad acting, this show was unbearable to watch. Moreover, in reality Tutankamun was severely disabled by skeletal disease, and could likely not stand up straight unaided, much less be a fierce fighter. One word: 'ugh'. Muse Entertainment should be ashamed of themselves.Muse Entertainment should be ashamed of themselves.

nicholls_les Sometimes we forget how good modern production values are. The sets on this mini series were outstanding and showed ancient Eygpt in it's full glory. Avan Jogia who plays Tut did a great job, he looked and acted the part brilliantly and he even stole scenes he played opposite Ben Kingsley.I thought Nonso Anozie was very good as the general, torn between his own desire for adulation and his allegiance to the young Pharoah. Sibylla Deen, who plays Tut's wife/sister was gorgeous and I thought she played her part well. Kylie Bunbury, who plays the other love interest of Tut was also beautiful and clearly a brilliant actress.Some of the sex scenes were unnecessarily graphic but that aside this was a good series well worth a watch.I am sure this is not historically accurate but very few of this type of film is.

batweiler I may be just a girl, you know, liking a little bit of romance and drama, but I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Yes, it has got a little bit of soap opera element in it, but it is also a well made, utterly captivating story and oh my, so easy on the eye! And it actually made me do some extensive reading on the real Tut. You cannot fault a show that inspires gaining knowledge, can you? Turns out, the show contains a lot of "artistic additions" history doesn't necessarily confirm, but who cares? It is not a documentary! I am not a film or TV critic, but shows are not made for them - they are made for us, normal people - and as a (reasonably) normal person, I say - it is great! Loved it!

nickluyten I read several of the reviews to see anyone said what I was gonna say and didn't look like it so far so here goes.I noticed that allot of people really liked the show, I also thought it was pretty good, but I got the idea the reason for that is, that it's actually Hamlet from Shakespeare with an Egyptian outfit. For those who don't know Hamlet, The Lion King was also the story of Hamlet. Try to see if you find any similarities. You will find many. I did enjoy watching it but I was hoping for a series about ancient Egypt, but except for looking Egyptian it had nothing to do with ancient Egypt so that's why I'm a bit disappointed. There is very little known about Tutankhamen but a few things they do know like who is parents where Ikhnaton and his sister who's name is unknown. they introduced Monotheism during there rule. When Tut became Pharaoh the old gods where reintroduced, probably the clergy took advantage of the young naive pharaoh but none know's, would have been nice if at least there was something about that in the series.
