Gladiator
In this epic historical drama from director Ridley Scott, the death of emperor Marcus Aurelius (Richard Harris) throws the Roman Empire into chaos. Maximus (Russell Crowe) is one of the Roman army's most capable and trusted generals and a key advisor to the emperor. As Marcus' devious son Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) ascends to the throne, Maximus is set to be executed. He escapes, but is captured by slave traders. Renamed Spaniard and forced to become a gladiator, Maximus must battle to the death with other men for the amusement of paying audiences. Determined to avenge himself against the man who took away his freedom and laid waste to his family, Maximus believes that he can use his fame and skill in the ring to avenge the loss of his family and former glory.

The color, detail, sets, the digital reconstruction of the Coliseum and other parts of Rome, the costumes, Hans Zimmer score, and impressive performances by Russell Crowe, the late Oliver Reed, Connie Nielsen, Djimon Hounsou, the other supporting cast, but especially Joaquin Phoenix - make "Gladiator" a film that is enjoyable to watch repeatedly and have in your permanent collection.
In case, you may be wondering - the Roman Emperor Commodus was indeed murdered by a gladiator (or wrestler, really) who was part of plot to do away with him...so, yes, the historical circumstances may have been embellished a bit (and other aspects of the film) to make Russell Crowe's character, a Roman general, more heroic than actual fact, but hey...it's the movies. Go with it.
The commentary track featuring Scott and Crowe is also quite interesting and occasional insightful even as Crowe points out a few minor flaws in the film.
The digital stream of the film (shown in Dolby Vision for those with an Apple TV set top box) is also quite impressive and shows little difference between the 4K UHD disc viewing in HDR for detail or richness of color. I've viewed the streaming version on my Sony 4k TV, a Samsung 1080p TV, and an older Philips 720p TV and the image is equally crisp and rich in color on each. If you want to test this out, check out the close-up of Russell Crowe's hand as he picks up the metal arrowhead from the dirt in the Coliseum.
One of the best films ever made. A wise purchase.
The main theme of the film concerns General Maximus Decimus Meridius. The opening scenes show him as a competent, charismatic military leader during a battle where his legions brutally decimate the Germanic hordes. As fine a General as he may be, he is a deliberately poor politician. And so it is no surprise when the prodigal political creature, Cesar's son Commodus, played well be Joaquin Phoenix, takes the throne with the aid of a little poison and immediately sets about to secure his position. Maximus is quietly sent away, to be executed, and orders for his wife and children are on their way before he is out of sight.
Not only is Maximus a proficient General but he is also skilled at personal combat. These talents help him to escape his immediate fate but not without some serious wounds. Wounds that slow him enough to prevent any rescue of his family. And so, we have a classic revenge scenario. The newly crowned Cesar, Commodus, is cast as the villain and Maximus is the hero, bent on revenge. This sort of plot can become laughably predictable but thanks to a decent script and Crowe's outstanding performance, we are forced into the cauldron of hate along with Maximus.
His revenge takes a less direct route than Maximus would have liked, since he is quickly scooped up by slave traders and, due to his imposing physique, snapped up by Proximo, a provincial games promoter. Killing for sport suites Maximus well, even if he would prefer a different face on his opponent. It is not long before Proximo realises that he may have something special. Despite the tempering influence of other fighters, specifically the Numidian Juba, (played with subtle appeal by Djimon Hounsou), Maximus is too efficient. He kills without any lingering flourishes, spoiling the crowd's fun.
All this changes when Proximo gives Maximus a glimpse of hope. The new Emperor is reopening the games in Rome and needs Gladiators. Proximo tries to tempt Maximus with the freedom of the wooden sword, a symbol of the freedom awarded for truly spectacular performances in the arena. But freedom is not what fires the General's imagination. It is the fact that the Emperor himself presents the award in person, a clear avenue to consummation of his vengeful goals.
Once again the simple linear approach is not taken. Events turn murky as Maximus becomes, at first, a crowd pleaser and then a political power as he successfully and repeatedly defeats the Emperor's chosen on the hot sands of Rome. As his fame spreads, he draws the powerful to him; the Emperor's sister, (and Maximus' former lover), Lucilla, various Senators, and even the Emperor's heir. But in the end it comes down to two, Maximus and Commodus.
A lot of people have praised the special effects and cinematography of Gladiator. Personally, I was less than impressed with many of the scenes, as they seemed muddled and confused. Even the computer-generated work forgot the first rule, reality is imperfect. Everything seemed too newly minted; flawless in its grandeur and therefore slightly suspect. However, the action in the coliseum was breathtaking and some of the solo fights were particularly effective cinema. But at bottom, Gladiator is not a special effects movie. It rests squarely on Crowe's shoulders and he successfully carries it beyond the realms of mediocrity, raising it up to become a modern classic.
