Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 5.0
Great! Received remastered copy.
Gladiator has always been one of my favorite movies. I was excited when it was first released to blu-ray, but was disappointed to see many reviews saying that it was poorly mastered. With the news that it had been remastered and the quality was great, I thought I'd take a chance and order it from Amazon. When I received it I was a bit worried...mine had the white UPC and the [...] rebate that expired in June of last year on the cover. Upon closer inspection, I found that the words "2 Disc Set" did not appear above the Paramount logo on the back, right-hand side of the case which has been a reliable indicator of the remastered version. I opened it, and compared the number on the back, inner-ring of the disc to the confirmed number that Paramount has you check for the exchange program, and it matched! I hope that Amazon is only selling the remastered version at this point. I can finally retire my DVD copy of Gladiator. If you like the movie, you owe it to yourself to order the blu-ray!
