Spartacus Reviews
This may be the most literate of all the spectacles set in antiquity.
Asurprisingly apt companion piece to Paths of Glory in its consideration of the mechanisms of power.

It is a spotty, uneven drama.
| Original Score: 2.5/5
The most courageous thing about it, from today's standards, is that it closes without an obligatory happy ending, and an audience that has watched for 187 minutes doesn't get a tidy, mindless conclusion.
