Gladiator DVD Action & Adventure (2000) Russell Crowe Quality Guaranteed

Ridley Scott’s glossy historical epic Gladiator revitalised the classic sword ‘n’ sandal genre, bringing both a modern pop-culture sensibility and state-of-the-art computer-generated special effects to what had seemed like a worn-out formula. Essentially a remake of Anthony Mann’s stodgy 1964 Fall of the Roman Empire, Gladiator also borrows heavily from Saving Private Ryan in its stunning opening sequence, and employs Ridley’s brother Tony Scott’s rapid-fire editing style for the remarkably staged Colosseum fights. The overall effect is a hugely impressive but emotionally empty spectacle complemented by Hans Zimmer’s bestselling but derivative score.
