Extremely violent, but impressive go see!

Rating: 8/10 (6 June 2000)

"Gladiator" is well worth your money. Go see it in a cinema. Don't wait for the film to be released on video or DVD. This is a cinematographic experience that will only happen once or twice a year! This is why people should go to movies, to see impressive feasts like this. Visually "Gladiator" is of extreme good quality. The story itself is a bit simple, if you compare it with those heroic epics from the 50's and 60's, the Ben Hurs and Spartacusses. In itself, the movie's graphic violence is sometimes a bit too much! While the story line could have been a bit more developed. Set dressing and computer effects, such as the Roman Collosseum, were done so well. Therefore, go see "Gladiator", you won't regret the experience. Sit it through, what you're gonna see is of extremely high value for money...
