Review of Gladiator (1992) by James Berardinelli for ReelViews — 02 Feb 2002
Gladiator is designed not just to entertain, but to enthrall. It draws audiences in and immerses them in a reality that is not their own. A boisterous reaction is expected every time the protagonist defies the odds and wins a conflict, or changes the tide of battle in his favor.
This is filmmaking on a grand scale.
