[Film Review] Spartacus (1960) 8.2/10

Nigh the dog end of Hollywood's studio era, a young Kubrick replaced Anthony Mann to direct this 1st century BC historical epic, which later he disowned for want of a carte blanche within his directorial remit.

That said, SPARTACUS is anything but a nondescript product out of Hollywood's assembly line, carrying a humongous budget around $12 million, it provides Kubrick a fecund playground to...

Times Choice

The Spartan uprising, known before, is still not a commendable content in high school textbooks. After watching this movie, I have a brief understanding of that period of history. This movie, I think, shows the process of that period of history relatively "completely", and the sense of picture is still very strong. From the initiation to the development to the end, the director tries his best to express "oppression and choice". The ending of "Spartak's Descendants Free" may also express the...

Freedom is a necessity for every man of seed, like blood

At the beginning, it was said that freedom was the effort of Spartacus, but it didn't appear until two thousand years later. After reading the film review, I knew that this was not Kubrick's favorite work, probably because it was a romantic movie, with passionate music throughout. , beautiful picture, touching love, and even the ending is very perfect and touching, this is indeed a mediocre work.

About Greece, about Rome, about the United States, about Western civilization, I...

great war movie

A great commander-in-chief, a true representative of the ancient proletariat. When the Roman phalanxes approached the insurgents one by one in the distance, I realized the beauty of war. Back then, the era without CG was created by group performances. Too bad there were no videotapes at that time. Some shots can only be experienced once, and if you want to watch it again, it will be gone. Later, I bought a book of "Spartacus" in the bookstore, and I probably understood the whole plot. It should...

It's not easy to portray the characters in such a big scene. The principal acted like a thief, and he almost finished it. The dubbing of this old version was silent when Crassus and the slave were taking a bath. I listened to it. After a while, it's not a love story, why didn't it...

It's said to be the only film that Kubrick didn't fully control because he was taking someone else's job, but within his control, he's done the best he can. Kubrick's skillful display of grand war scenes can be called a great director! After digital restoration, the Blu-ray image is quite outstanding, which once again shows the ultimate pursuit of the image by the library guide. When Varinia appeared, she could clearly see the effect of the soft-focus mirror, which was very...

Although it does not have Kubrick's style, it does not affect its being a good movie. The old Douglas is really handsome, and the young Douglas is more sexy. The rhythm of the 1960s, the soundtrack of the 1960s, and the style of the lines in the 1960s, when I think of the flesh-and-blood Spartan 300, there really is a sense of time splash. ....

The citizens of Rome and the current middle class, the slaves all over the Mediterranean and the people at the bottom of the society, the parliamentarians of Rome and the powerful people... The society seems to have no...
