In the year 180, the death of emperor Marcus Aurelius throws the Roman Empire into chaos. Maximus is one of the Roman army's most capable and trusted generals and a key advisor to the emperor.

Renamed Spaniard and forced to become a gladiator, Maximus must battle to the death with other men for the amusement of paying audiences.

WINNER OF 5 ACADEMY AWARDS, AND 4 BAFTAS - INCLUDING BEST PICTURE

"It is monumental movie-making: visually thrilling, technically astonishing, and emotionally engaging."
★★★★★ Marc Lee, Daily Telegraph 

"This is visceral film-making at its finest, painted on the grandest of canvases, and yet, one which maintains the finest eye for detail."
★★★★★ Total Film

"The sheer dynamism of the action, coupled with Hans Zimmer's lavish score and the forcefield of Crowe, still makes this a fiercesome competitor in the summer movie stakes."
★★★★ Ian Nathan, Empire Magazine

"In Russell Crowe, Scott has found an actor who can carry this movie the way Atlas was supposed to carry the globe"
Alexander Walker, London Evening Standard
