Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 3.0
Award winning Mediocrity...
The cinematography in this film is great, as well as the casting and effects.. yet for some reason it just didn't seem to live up to the hype surrounding it.. So many other movies were better than this, and it's hard to understand why it was considered an Academy Award winner... Technical merits aside.. the story just doesn't live up and isn't worth a second viewing... My husband was excited to purchase this film & once viewed, he was sorely wishing he had spent his money elsewhere.... Save it for a rental night.
