GLADIATOR
The General who became a slave. The slave who became a Gladiator. The Gladiator who defied an Empire. Against the violent and treacherous might of the Roman Empire, one man stands alone. Unwilling to follow a false and dishonourable leader, Maximus finds himself on the run, only to be captured and forced into slavery. His remarkable strength and ability leads him to the spectacle of the Gladiator arena where he emerges triumphant. So successful is he that he is taken to the Coloseum itself and ultimately brought face to face with the cruel Emperor responsible for destroying his life.
