Spartacus: Gladiator War (2005): Besetzung, Handlung & Streaming

Released in 2005, Spartacus: Gladiator War is a dokumentarfilm and drama film directed by Dan Oliver.

What it’s about. It began with a breakout from a prison kitchen; it became a civil war. Based on the latest research, this dramatised documentary reveals how around 70 men armed themselves with kitchen knives and roasting spits, and chose a man called Spartacus as their leader. People came to join them in their thousands, and within a matter of months, the fugitive band was an army 100,000 strong. Strong enough to threaten the destruction of Rome. This film tells the story of a modern, dirty war of propaganda, psychological warfare and guerrilla tactics fought two thousand years ago. And it reveals the true character of Spartacus, a ruthless and charismatic leader very different to the figure created by two thousand years of myth-making.

How it landed. With an audience score of 10.0/10, Spartacus: Gladiator War sits among the best-reviewed titles in the catalogue.
