the gladiator movies have been done before, but it was an original story to th table. this has to stop now though. im gonna like it no matter what and you dont, and i respect that. I dont know how we got this far but gladiators with swords are always fun to watch fighting tigers and other gladiators
You can like it, i have no problem with that.... but you are saying something that simply is not true in it being original.... the story, like i said, is right out of sparticus.
A gladiator rising up from slavery to snag an army and over throw a king. That is the story of gladiator, correct? it is also the story for sparticus.
What im saying is that the similarities are far deeper then simply being in teh same genre.
Snag an army?Is that like take control of an army?
If so he doesnt do that. He faces the emperor (not king) all by himself.
The original story didnt have a love story...it was just suppose to be him disgraced and getting his honor back but the new writer brought that on.
I think Crowe was good in this movie but not Oscar good. He was way better in the Insider.
