mr prill i agree on the historically incorect but i do have to say that Gladiator is one of the best movies ever made

I saw most of this movie, which i thought it was very good but barbaric(because of the son,Commodus, and how he killed everyone who were in his way sort of like Qin Hsuihuangdi and Mo-Tun). But i don't know what part in general are historically inaccurate(well i know that the original king died peacefully). The "Bread and Circus" theme is correct though, right?

Mr.Curtis said...

Was the general really Maximus? And i thought the part where Maximus was about to get executed and he asked for a soldiers death after the son became the emperor was pretty sick

Yeah id say its a pretty good movie, but as mr. prill said, it was filmed during pax romana. during the campaign of rome, at the end of rome's good emperors. they dont show what it was as a repuplic.

EVERYONE VOTE FOR DISNEY HERCULES!

i liked that the gladiators whore armor on one arm like it really was so that they could move there free arm easier and it was a awesome movie

WOAH I LOVE THIS MOVIE!

this is one of the best movies ever, and plus, the main character guy is verry good looking!
but i was very depressed that him and his family died in the end :(

and yeah, i think it was historically inaccurate in some parts..

i was just woundering is this one of those movies were most of the stuff in it is false?

Prill said...

historically, the film does get several things wrong. however, the thing about gladiator is that it does manage to capture the feel of the time period that few films have managed to do.
