Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 5.0
Epic moviemaking and lush visuals
Ridley Scott did a great job casting Russell Crowe in this lushly scored and shot epic about a Roman General who is spurned by his childhood friend and captured as a slave. The character is wonderfuly developed and a great pleasure to watch. As far as family friendly this would be best enjoyed by families with older children. Some of the scenes would be far to violent for little eyes.
