Such violent and brutal motives! After watching the movie, that's all I thought. How do they set the scene of the war? Many movies can be done better these days. The way they showed violence in a war between gladiators? No, not as violent as some action movies these days. Certain lines in the movie also don't make sense ("The Fourth Day of Antioch"). What impressed me most was that there were a lot of wooden penises in the Colosseum (laughs). In any case, despite the unconvincing ending, the film is meticulously done in many ways. Maybe it gets high marks because this is the childhood of many Westerners.
