The first twenty minutes of fighting scenes are standard commercial film techniques, and they can even be said to be used in Hollywood epic movies. The purpose of this is very clear, attracting the audience to continue watching. Judging from the eyes of most viewers staring at the picture, the expected results were achieved.

What is the most critical factor for a movie to sell well? Reflection, artistic or profound theme? It is certainly not these. Big movies have the same key factors and can provide the audience with enough entertainment.

There was no accident, as all the audience expected, the well-equipped and disciplined regular army wiped out the German rabble.

This war scene, which is not very related to the plot, came to an end with the cheers of "Long Live Rome" led by Ryan's Maximos.

The film enters the conspiracy stage, Commodes kills his father with his own hands and seizes the throne, Quintas betrays the legion, and the new emperor who surrenders to wants to execute Maximos...

The tense plot caused the audience to be tense. Gene held Luya's hand tightly, but rarely spoke. As a veteran who has been watching the movie for many years, he knew how disgusting it was to make strange admiration or marvelous sounds.

As a moviegoer in a cinema, what is the most annoying thing?

If you ask the audience about this question, you will definitely see a super bad movie. If you ask the second one, there will definitely be people around you making noises, which will affect your emotions.

Gene still remembers "Shocking and Screaming", in which there is a scene where female audiences keep making noises in the theater, and the other audiences who are angry are dismembered. In fact, it is a mockery of some people in the theater who cannot watch movies quietly.

In most mainstream theaters in North America, it is the most basic polite to keep a quiet viewing state.

In terms of actor appeal alone, this movie is undoubtedly too much more than in the previous life. Not to mention Ryan and Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lopez, who entered the ranks of superstars after "Mission Impossible", can also attract a lot of male audiences. Although the only female character with a little weight was played by her as a big vase.

There is no doubt that compared to Maximos being valued by the old emperor and loved by his subordinates, Commodes is a tragedy.

He was determined to be the great emperor of the Roman Empire, but his heir was not himself. How noble and upright Maximos was, he was as sinister and mean as he was.

But he is also a pitiful person, and he is also a very real person, or he reflects the other side of human beings - selfishness! Ambition! Desire!

It's just that he's more extreme and perverted.

What about Maximos? His series of tragedies may not be caused by his own personality.

However, it is precisely this kind of personality that can show the dramatic conflict between characters and highlight the charm of the protagonist.

Maximos's leadership style and man's sense of responsibility, and love for his family, are places that can easily impress the audience.

The God of Destiny seemed to be teasing the brave and warlike general. He gave up his mission of bringing the Roman Empire to the republic and wanted to return home to reunite with his wife and children. However, what greeted him was the cruel reality - the destruction of his home and the murder of his wife and children by the new emperor.

After burying his family, Maximos's former wishes and yearnings were all shattered. At this time, what he wanted was not power, status and the future of Rome. Without courage and honor, he might be more determined to die, right?

If you die, you will be completely eliminated and you will be able to reunite with your family, and you will not have to worry about the troubles in this world.

Perhaps some viewers have such thoughts, but the plot of the movie is tortuous after all. Maximos was rescued and fully explained what fate is to mess with people. His real mission has not been fulfilled, and his greatest wish - to reunite with his family after death - cannot be satisfied.

However, at this time, he lost all the halo he originally had, and was in a situation where he could not complete the tasks assigned to him by the old emperor, but the gears of fate would not stop rotating because of these. He had to wake up after going through hardships.

From the commander of the Roman Northern Legion to becoming a slave, what kind of transformation is needed?

Maximos was like a walking corpse, as if he had lost all his goals and just lived a numb slave life. He was eventually bought by a gladiator and became a gladiator.

The sword is held in the hand of the gladiator, and you have to fight for life or death by yourself. This is the fate of the gladiator!

Cutting and killing is undoubtedly Maximos' best skill. He won again and again in the arena, becoming the most popular gladiator in the local area. The name "Spanish" became the king of gladiators in his area.

The arena of blood and sand, fierce battles and fanatical atmosphere are undoubtedly the best ways to attract audiences.

Ryan used his own performance to show Maximos's process of gradually returning to normal from confusion to everyone. Although it inevitably brought the characteristics of expressiveness, in his own opinion, it was at least better than Russell Clow in his previous life.

The decent protagonist will eventually collide with the despicable villain, and no movie can escape this fixed pattern.

After Commodes inherited the throne, in order to stabilize the people's hearts, he decided to restart the banned gladiatorial competition. The news soon reached this side. Maximos agreed to the request of the gladiator's merchant, and he was going to Rome and stood in front of the emperor.

However, he was not for freedom, but for revenge, and for the emperor to pay the price for his crimes.

The city of Rome, the center of the Roman Empire, its glory represents the civilization of the Roman Empire.

The huge arena is majestic, but it is like a bloody slaughterhouse. It is the other side of the barbaric side of the Roman Empire.

Although the film uses a large number of models combined with late-stunts to reproduce the great city of the year, the audience has been baptized by too many special effects and will no longer make exclamations like the Titanic when it broke and sank.

In recent years, visual special effects have developed rapidly and have become a common film technology for ordinary audiences.

Unless a huge breakthrough can be achieved in special effects, it will be difficult to shock the audience to the point of being stunned by the existing technology.

Besides, the special effects technology shown in "Gladiator" is definitely not top-notch, nor is it the biggest selling point of the movie.

The various aspects of life in Rome were presented to the audience. The emperor Commodes was not as easy as he imagined. He had conflicts with the Senate and his sister, and he had to beware of others coveting his position at all times...

The only thing to be happy is that the lifting of the ban on gladiatorship seemed to have won him the support of the people, and tens of thousands of people shouted in the arena seemed to satisfy him.

Faced with this bloody and barbaric competitive gladiator, the sword in his hand is undoubtedly the most reliable partner. After experiencing the long-term shooting of "The Lord of the Rings" and learning specialized swordsmanship, Ryan fully demonstrates the strong and brave side of a man, and at the same time, he does not lack wisdom. The Maximos he plays, just like him, continues to win through repeated struggles and efforts, and shapes his own personal charm!

So he and Comds stood in the arena. After Comds discovered his true identity, he could only take some despicable ways to kill him in the arena, but he resolved it one by one, which won more support from the people.

However, the bloody massacre and the heroic scenes of the people confused Maximos' understanding of Rome. What was his ideal life in the Roman Empire? It was definitely not like this now!

Seeing these scenes of distorted ideas, watching people fight against human blood types and madness towards death, even if they are worshipped, even Commodes is envious and jealous, Maximos does not have any sense of glory, but he is more of a roar at this real world.

The Roman Empire needed to be saved and toward republic.

It seemed as if this was Maximos' mission. His former entourage came to his side, and the princess, the Senate members appeared one by one. Maximos must make a choice to complete the mission assigned by the old emperor to him, and at the same time complete his own revenge!

Failed to escape, been arrested, arrested in resistance alliances, etc., a series of things are just to prove one thing. If there is anything, solve it in the arena.

Comtez wanted to kill Maximos, more than anyone else, but his reason told him that he could not do this openly, because Maximos had become a hero supported by the people. Once he killed Maximos, he would become an absolute tyrant in the minds of the people. Under the current Roman system, he knew better than anyone else what would happen at that time.

So, Maximos and Commodes, as well as all the main characters who appeared in the movie, inevitably show their faces in the grand, bloody and savage arena when "gaochao" arrives.

Since the villain is insidious and despicable, before the arrival of "gaochao", it will naturally be more insidious and despicable, so that the audience will completely hate him, so that the atmosphere that has been suppressed since he killed the old emperor will be completely released!

Like all movies, the villain will eventually die at the hands of the protagonist. Even if he uses all his conspiracies and tricks and uses poison daggers, he will definitely end up being betrayed by everyone.

And what about heroes? Dead heroes will be greater and more worthy of memory.

What's more, Maximos' greatest wish is to reunite with his wife and children, and his death may not be a relief.

Revenge is successful, and the movie also needs to show what is most suitable for American values. In order to eliminate dictatorship and tyrants, the hero will do whatever it takes.

"Quntas, letting go of my men and restoring the power of the Senate, the Roman Republic is a dream, it should be fulfilled!"

Quintas, who starts with the words "people must accept their fate", is from a certain perspective, not the smartest character in the film.

"Glory him!"

In the magnificent background music, everyone held up Maximos.

"He is a hero!"

This is undoubtedly the most realistic psychological portrayal of the audience at this moment.
