Best Movie in a Decade, but why isn't it on Bluray?!?!?, 2008-08-08
OK, heres the deal, when a negative review has this statement in it, "Commodus was badly depicted, Roman annals usually depict him as" you know it isn't a "Movie" review, but rather some wanna be historian that wanted to watch a documentary.
Taking this film for what it is, A MOVIE!!!!!, it is near perfection.
Characters have to be created in a movie to inspire reactions by the viewer. It isn't a documentary, nor has it EVER intended to be.
Now, on a personal note, we need to get this thing released on Blu Ray ASAP.
