Unleash Hell - Gladiator

Set in Roman times, the story of a once-powerful general forced to become a common gladiator. The emperor's son is enraged when he is passed over as heir in favour of his father's favourite general. He kills his father and arranges the murder of the general's family, and the general is sold into slavery to be trained as a gladiator - but his subsequent popularity in the arena threatens the throne.

One of the greatest opening scenes in all cinematic history. Ridley Scott is a bloody genius.

[spanglestein]

I was one of the Roman soldier extras in this part of the film .
Amazing experience

[The_Foreigner_Belt]

How Sir Ridley can go from such perfect heights of cinematic story telling to the depths of Nepoleon I will never understand.

[caseydman]

They'll never make anything close to this ever again....im so glad to have grown up with this movie

[pwrofrob]

The shot of the dog jumping through the flames into battle is bad ass.

[Echo]

One of the best pre-battle speeches.
He mentions family as a great motivator to carry out their duties, not hollow concepts. That "riding alone, with the sun in your face" joke not only serves to relieve some of the pre-battle nerves, it's also a comforting reminder about afterlife. And, finally..."what we do in life, echoes in eternity"...all that delivered with the strong voice & charisma of a general, who despite his rank, is a "primus inter pares", addresses his troops as "fratres" and leads them from the front...

This particular speech scene will always send shivers down my spine and make me stand straighter

I like the opening of this scene. You can tell Maximus is beloved by the men, Commodus was not just jealous of the respect he commanded, but he also knew he would never be able to become emperor without full control of the military - Maximus, while an honorable man, was a threat to Commodus's ascension to power simply because Maximus owned their hearts and minds.

"You are already dead." One of the greatest war movie scenes ever.

[kyledunn]

"What we do in life echoes in eternity."

[JeffreyDeCristofaro]

"At my signal... unleash hell." One of the most badass lines in film history and some of the best words to ever start a battle.

[billyfranklin]

"People should know when they are conquered...." "Would you Quintus? Would I?"

Such a simple yet profound statement that humanized their foes and revealed that Maximus understood that in reality there was truly no difference between them, just the circumstances they found themselves in....

[neildiamond]

No matter how many times I watch this film never get bored of it

[kye]

“STAY WITH MEEEE!!!”
“What we do in life, echoes in eternity.”
How can you not want to fight for Maximus with speeches like the one he just gave?

[kazielbonn]

6:34 After decades I've just noticed that there's a barbarian extra smiling as he walks away from the Roman line. 😆

[DadBooom]

Easily the greatest opening in film history, imo. That panning right shot of the catapults volley is the definition of Epic

[middleway]

Maybe the best battle to ever be on the big screen. Truly a masterpiece.

[Vitalclubsport]

One of the best battle scenes in movie history. Watched it wide screen 📺 UHD dolby surround, I felt like the arrows were passing by my head. The cavalry charge is so gripping, one has the feeling that you are riding with them through the trees. Unforgettably electrifying!!

[JMI]

"If you find yourself alone riding in Green fields with the sun on your face. Do not be troubled, for you are an Elysium and you already dead... Brothers, what we do in life echoes in Eternity"

[cordeliacentauri]

The opening scene of this movie is really good. It shows the romans strong fighting as one cohesive unit instead of breaking and suddenly fighting one on one and throwing away the scutum... Pullo GET BACK IN FORMATION.

[kevinkilduff]

One of the finest movies ever made. Period.
