Rating: 5.0
EXCELLENT DVD FOR A GREAT FILM!
The film that recusitated the historical epic, "Gladiator" is an awesome filmmaking achievement. Exciting fight sequences, cutting-edge special effects, and breathtaking performances help to take the viewer back to the Roman era, a time of both intolerable cruelty and technological advancement. The film is truly the masterpiece of Sir Ridley Scott!The new DVD release has a great host of special features, including a 200-Minute Making-of Documentary. But, best of all, the DVD features two versions of the film: the 155-Minute Theatrical Cut, and the 171-Minute Extended Cut. Both versions are given terrific sound and picture quality! Any fan of the film, or of historical epics for that matter, will want the new Extended DVD Edition of "Gladiator" in their collection!Movie/DVD Grade: A+
