Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 4.0
THE film of the year 2000
I have to confess when i saw the presentation in the TV about this movie i just tought it was another summer disaster..opss..sorry.. i mean summer movie. Well as soon the video edition came out in my video club i only rent it because of the oscars it had won and i was courious. The first 5 minutes was enough to change my mind. Almoust perefct in every way : the director (THE great Mr Scott)did a great job (the action scenes are great and also the flash backs); good plot; Russel is the perfect heroe : a man tormented by the death of his Joaquin family trying to avange them, in the oposite corner is Phoenix the "vilan" who is fourious by the chose of his father to give the power of the empire to a a general; one of the best soundtrack i had ever heard; and excelent psecial efects: I really recomend it.
