Gladiator is a beloved piece of cinema even 23 years later, but there are a few harsh realities that its fans must overlook upon a rewatch.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT It's been 23 years since Gladiator first wowed audiences, and though it's still an exemplary film, there are a few harsh realities that come with a rewatch. The story of Maximus is tragic, inspiring, and full of the bloody spectacle of the gladiators of ancient Rome are known for. This meant for a thoroughly entertaining film when Gladiator was released in 2000, but a good deal has changed since then.
9 Gladiator Is Far From Historically Accurate The Roman Empire is a fascinating subject. The idea that such a massive, successful, and brutal civilization could fall to pieces is something of a real-world cautionary tale, and it has a firm grip on modern politics and entertainment. Unfortunately, a lot of what people think they know about it is false, and that is thanks, in part, to films like Gladiator.
6 Gladiator's Filming Mistakes Are Easier To See Today The televisions that audiences are watching Gladiator on today are far higher quality than the ones the film was initially intended for, which means several details that were easy to overlook have become glaringly obvious. There is a viral image that has been circulating the internet for years of an airplane flying over Maximus' head, but this has long since been proven fake.
