Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 5.0
A DVD well worth the purchase
I received a DVD player for Christmas and the 2 Disc Gladiator DVD as well. This disc is what I envisioned when I finally determined it was time for a DVD player. Sure DVDs have better picture and sound and you can see the film more as it was intended and try to replicate the theater experience. As a movie buff, the reason I wanted a DVD player was for background information on the movies I loved. I think it is obvious that this is a great movie, with Oscar nominations galore, but what makes the DVD so special is all the extras. Along with commentary on the movie, film trailers, and film ads there are numerous little clips cut from the movie during editing, an hour long documentary on gladiators, pictures of the storyboard for the movie and so much more. You could truly enjoy & explore all the other features on these discs for a long time to come. You wouldn't have enough time for it all in just a rental.
