Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 4.0
Braveheart + The Patriot= Gladiator
The plot of Ridley Scott's new epic "Gladiator" is a mix of the two movies I listed above, along with tigers and many visual treats. The plot and characters aside (who cares if they make up the movie?), this film is fantastic. The battle scenes are extremely well excecuted and thrilling, Crowe makes Mel Gibson look like a whimp, and there's also a good helping of blood too. Had there been a plot for this movie, and some characters who weren't hired right after the making of Braveheart, this film could have earned a five star rating.
