Gladiator 4K 2000

The year 180 AD: Emperor Marc Aurel practically defeated the last Germanic troops and thus achieved his goal. However, he is in poor health and has to think about a successor. Once General Maximus (Russell Crowe) was told streets were paved with gold. And it comes that he, as a gladiator, has to fight his way through arenas to avenge his archenemy Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) for the murder of his family...

The screenplay was inspired through the ancient history collection 'Historia Augusta', which reports on the life of the Roman emperors. It also included the story of Commodus, who was strangled by a gladiator named Narcissus. This is the piece of Hollywood legacy that film makers would point to as an example of how well they were doing their jobs.

In 2000 Ridley Scott (Alien) remarkably revived this genre: monumental film. Awe-inspiring, truthful and epic, these are just 3 words that describe this epochal and highly emotional touch you are likely to perceive when watching. Everything sits just perfectly right here. This classic hit the cinemas with a proud budget of $ 103,000,000. Watch it now on 4K Blu-ray and DTS: X at home, grab'em all and you'll be covered!
