Granted, while I never got around to actually finish watching the "Marco Polo" series, then it was still quite nice to watch "Marco Polo: One Hundred Eyes".The storyline presented here was nicely written and it was quite nice to get the background story for one of the more prominent characters in the series.And it did, of course, help that they had the original cast from the series appear here for this background piece as well. And you can expect good performances from the likes of Benedict Wong, Tom Wu, Olivia Cheng, Claudia Kim and Michelle Yeoh, to mention but a few.So if you were (or are) a fan of the "Marco Polo" series, then you most definitely would want to sit down watch watch "Marco Polo: One Hundred Eyes", without a doubt.

It reminds a good homework. correct, precise, admirable. reflecting smart perspective, talent and proposing the perfect missing piece for define a character. and that has two virtues - to seduce the fans of serie, to propse a window to serie for the others. fight scenes, lessons and the answer to a fundamental question. all in admirable manner proposed to public. and, maybe, this is the basic source of seduction of the short film who seems more inspire than a part of the episodes of "Marco Polo" itself. so, an admirable homework.

"Marco Polo: One Hundred Eyes" is a short film from a couple days ago that is an addition to the "Marco polo" series before season 2 starts off in summer 2016. This one, however, plays before season 1 actually and elaborates on the past of one of the central characters. I thought this one needs a bit going, but when it does, it is a fairly successful work by Emmy-winning cinematographer Alik Sakharov, who is also the director here. The acting is good, the script is solid as well, including one very tense scene, in which the main character is blinded by snake poison. Nice to see the filmmakers of the series do this little movie to have fans not wait too long for season 2. More series should adapt to that concept. As a whole, it's nothing that would get me interested in watching the series, it's not that great, but a decent little watch in my opinion and I recommend it.
