Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 5.0
Simply the most historically correct and crisp movie.
I saw this move over the summer about a weak after it came out. Maximus(crowe)leader of the roman army led the opening battle against the goths(early germanic tribe). His great leadership puts him up for the seat as the emporer of rome, but before he can decide, the emporer's son kills the emprorer making him the immeadiate heir. He orders Maximus to be put to death but Maximus escapes and gets put in to a gladiator sept.The movie is very historically correct with nothing historians could criticize. The film is moving leaving you with goosebumps and a sense of pride. I recommend this movie to all history buffs (LIKE ME) or to anyone. I think kids 13 and older are capable of handling this movie there is only blood and violence and no profanity.All Hail Maximus!
