Watch CENTURION from last year, I recommend it. Supposedly the Eagle’ was ripped off from Centurion, and the producers of both movies tried to sue each other.

Not really. Centurion is the disappearance event in 117AD. The Eagle is a "15 years after" recovery of The Legion's eagle, based on a Childrens/Young Adult novel Eagle of the Ninth by Rosemary Sutcliffe (Which I thoroughly reccomend)

And just to be curmugeonly, I think the definative film adaption was probably the 1977 BBC minseries - brilliant adaption.
