nice

to criticize it is the first temptation. and to criticize hard. but, in essence, it is only a nice animation. not convincing, not seductive, far to be great. but a sort of innocent joke with a generous theme, using old ingredients - love, competition,the error and the work to become the best from Karate Kid model, Ancient Rome as theoretical frame and few crazy characters. and the work is done. pure entertainment, amusing and far by great expectations, it is a sort of animation who could be a fresh air after the serious, high budget and large team of Pixar or Disney. in same measure, Galdiators of Rome preserves the flavor of old fashion animations.and the message. nothing new about gladiators or Rome. but a good dose of smiles. that is all.

Timo is a young orphan who is saved from the tragedy of the Pompeii volcano, and adopted by General Chirone, founder of the famous Academy of Gladiators. The young boy grows up surrounded by all kinds of gladiators, but shows no interest in becoming one of them.

Everything changes when he meets Lucilla, who is promised to Cassio, considered by many to be the best gladiator in Rome and the Emperor's famous nephew.

Cute, I liked it, a cute animation, with a very dramatic, sad beginning, historically located in Pompeii and Rome, let's wrap it up with a lot of action and some romanticism... The script attracted me less, the charismatic and simple characters (actually only the protagonist and the little children) however conquered the average film... Regular...
