Alright so a few people here and there are complaining about Gladiator's new release to the blu-ray format. I just watched it for a first time and honestly i didn't think that it was that bad. People are claiming that arrows and spears disappear but you can't notice it at all while the film is playing. This certainly isn't as good of a picture as Braveheart, which I also got today, but IT IS MUCH BETTER THAN THE DVD FORMAT. Any true fan of this motion picture will invest in this purchase. Plus you get $10 dollars off if you have the DVD through a mail-in rebate with Paramount. If you buy Braveheart and Gladiator together you get them for $17.99 a piece. Factor in the $10 rebates for both titles and you're only paying 8 bucks for a blu-ray title. Not bad at all!
What's great about it: Story line, acting, etc. etc.
