Review of Gladiator (1992) by Tanner B — 06 Aug 2016
Gladiator (2000) C-154m. ??? D: Ridley Scott. Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix, Connie Nielsen, Oliver Reed. Dynamite sword and sandals epic, with Roman general Crowe returning to his country as a gladiator to seek revenge on corrupt leader Phoenix after his betrayal and family's death.
Crowe's bravura, Oscar-winning performance makes up for narrative's ramblings. Film, Costumes, Sound, and Special/Visual Effects also won Academy Awards. Reed's final film. Extended version runs 171 minutes.
Panavision.
