Dir. Ridley Scott · United Kingdom, United States of America · English
What we do in life echoes in eternity.
After the death of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, his devious son takes power and demotes Maximus, one of Rome's most capable generals who Marcus preferred. Eventually, Maximus is forced to become a gladiator and battle to the death against other men for the amusement of paying audiences.
"Without Russell Crowe's dynamism holding it all together, Gladiator might have devolved into a rash of overblown pandering."
— Peter Rainer
"The best film Ridley Scott has made... Here he's made the quintessential big-budget studio product that's smarter than it looks, a fiendishly arduous logistical feat that clicks together like a well-tailored suit of armour."
— Leslie Felperin
