A comment on the Amazon page says-- This IS NOT your cheesy Beastmaster/Xena/Hercules series. There are no cheep over the top fight scenes. It is very well done and serious. Well, Roar did try to be less fantastic than Xena-Herc, but it did have a fantastic side. Sometimes I think its fantastic and semi-realistic sides undermined each other.
