Product Description
The classic tale of Spartacus, the Republic's most infamous rebel comes alive in "Spartacus: Blood and Sand." Then, "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena" will explore its deadly history before the arrival of Spartacus, and the death he carried with him. "Spartacus: Vengeance" continues to follow Spartacus as he is faced with a choice to either satisfy his personal need for vengeance, or make the sacrifices necessary to keep his growing army from breaking apart at the seams. Finally, in "Spartacus: War of the Damned," Spartacus will carve his name into history as he plots to avenge his wife's death and leads Batiatus' slaves in a bloody uprising.

Know this - Spartacus is AWESOME. The supporting cast is incredible, consisting of 300/ Lord of the Rings / Hobbit alum along with the always-entertaining John Hannah and Lucy Lawless. The visuals and set design borrow from the stylized CGI backgrounds and slow-motion fight scenes of Zack Snyder's "300," combined with a taste of (co-producer) Sam Raimi camp that was evident in productions like "Hercules" and "Xena," and though this does create a very particular flavor for the show that makes it difficult to take totally seriously, there is no denying that the end product is some of the best eye candy and addictive viewing I've experienced on the small screen. The stylized, intentional CGI-heavy look may not be to everyone's taste, but it undoubtedly gives "Spartacus" much of its character and helps set it apart from shows like "Barbarians" and "Game of Thrones." Beautiful people in full frontal nudity and softcore porn are the rules rather than the exceptions in Spartacus, and you will find no lack of six-pack abs, bulging biceps, voluptuous breasts, and other visual showcasing of flesh. Fight choreography is often breathtaking and brutally violent, and while the show's plot somehow manages to blend a "Cliff notes" version of historical accuracy with the requisite twists and turns of a juicy soap opera and serves it up with epic prose that sounds like a poor man's version of Shakespeare, the entire experience is utterly compelling from beginning to end. This is not a plot-heavy show, but you will find plenty of character development to go along with all of the sex and violence. While said sex and violence is what "Spartacus" is ultimately known for, such blunt distillation unfairly undermines the show's artistic merits, including its set design and dialogue, which makes watching even simple conversation between characters more interesting and engaging than it has any right to be.
The show truly finds its footing after the conclusion of the first season, for while main star Andy Whitfield would be unable to return due to his battle with cancer, the second and subsequent seasons solidify the show's fight choreography and move the plot forward in ways that the first show could not do due to its central setting. Season 1.5 (Gods of the Arena) provides an opportunity to set up additional characters and motivational arcs that become relevant in future seasons, as well as add depth to relationships that were developed in the first. It is here that we also see the show start to truly master the look and feel of the visceral combat sequences, which become noticeably more technical and nail-biting than what the first season was able to produce. It cannot be overemphasized how artistically stunning many of the fights and battles in Spartacus appear to be choreographed and performed, especially considering that these can be seen throughout the show and were achieved on a budget that was probably a fraction of what Hollywood blockbusters have to work with.
Liam McIntyre steps into the role of Spartacus for the final two seasons, and while things initially feel a bit off with his portrayal, he soon makes the role his own and helps these final episodes be even better than what came before. Set pieces and battles are bigger and more impressive and the show manages to continue to keep viewers enthralled and in suspense even as the show marches towards the inevitable conclusion carved (loosely) into history books. Despite the departure of John Hannah after "Gods of the Arena," these final seasons also deliver the goods when it comes to devious villains. Gaius Claudius Glaber, Ilithyia, Ashur, Marcus Crassus, and Gaius Julius Caesar all offer worthy opponents for Spartacus and his allies, and half of the show's fun is witnessing the mental tactics waged between the protagonists and antagonists. While the final season's conclusion was not the show's high point for me, it was satisfying enough to recommend the purchase of this set and viewing of the show in its entirety.
In conclusion, "Spartacus" is Steven DeKnight's magnum opus and one of the best premium cable shows ever produced. It, along with "Ash vs Evil Dead," stands as the best of what Starz has ever offered in original programming. This Blu Ray set, authored and released by Anchor Bay, offers razor sharp picture clarity, reference-level sound quality, and plenty of audio commentaries, behind-the-scenes footage, and interviews with cast and crew. Highly recommended for fans of Zack Snyder's cinematic "300," pseudo-historical epics (like Ridley Scott's "Gladiator"), Shakespearean tragedy topped with Sam Raimi cheese, combat sports (like MMA), and gratuitous sex and violence who don't mind a side helping of artistic flair and character development.
