RIDLEY SCOTT WORKS FOR "PIXAR FOR "SOME" ADULTS" (no naked ladies etc.)

Rating: 6/10 (19 July 2006)

I think this movie can best described as Blood and Guts" with super duper computer generated graphics. Displaying ancient Rome as a Beautful cesspool with mobs to be appeased but not a hint of nudity or sex to speak of, is unfair to us, the Romans and filmmakers. ALso this flick makes absolutely no effort to reflect any of the actual history of the period and does not come close to showing the Insanity of Commodus.
As a fantasy flick its pretty good and I recommend "Fall of the Roman Empire, The (1964)" which covers the same ground withs it own version of history but with Sophia Loren as Livius and slightly more skin/
Just watched this movie, again, in 2009 and 2006 comments still correct.
