A
newly appointed Roman Emperor betrays
his father's wishes by banishing, Maximus,
a Roman war hero. Maximus soon finds
himself back in Rome competing as a gladiator
and planning his revenge.
Good
performances, fine action, great character
development and spectacular special effects
work seamlessly to bring the first Roman-era
motion picture in 40 years to life.
A
violent, but pleasing film rich in all
that an audience could want. Worthy of
repeat viewing.
Directed
by Ridley Scott.
