Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This is a very funny movie. Just finished watching it and can only say I was pleasantly surprised. It is full of little jokes, but unlike the moronic "meet the Spartans", these jokes are clever. Typical English wordplay and silly modern day parallels and plays on pretty much every cultural stereotype. It seems like this movie is full of strong fun roles for women and the guys just don't really count. Italians speaka lika da pizzamanna.. its actually funny to see in a movie like this and Celtic warrior women looking for love in a very "special" way.Considering the crap thats been coming out of Hollywood and labeled "comedy" its hard to imagine this one got overlooked.

On the video cover, there's a back view of a girl in a short Roman skirt, and some text which says, "Does my Gluteus Meximus look big in this?"That one costume, and that one joke, is better than anything in the entire movie. I swear, it made me wonder of it's so much to ask that watching a movie be at least as entertaining as looking at the cover.All the women, even in the actual arena, are fully clothed in baggy fur. The sets are obviously cheep, jokes are just bad, it seems to have been made by people who don't know anything about movies. There's one good scene;In this movie the Tpits are depicted as always wearing severed rotting human heads around their necks like necklaces. In one scene the 3 (three) main characters are disguising themselves as 2 (two) Tpits. The first one has an actual head around her neck, but the second one has the third one standing inside her clothes pretending to be a severed head. I recommend instead;The ArenaSparticusMonty Python's Holy grail

This movie was possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. That may be overly harsh because I have seen "Anaconda" and "Pearl Harbour" and even parts of "Son of the Mask" but quite honestly, this film gave me a headache.Okay, good things... good things... well, the acting was pretty good.On to the not-so-good things. It was confusing. I mean, there was something about Romans and Britons, divine intervention, something about bees was mentioned, a kidnapping, a brief fight or something, coming back form the dead, a tunnel, a duck... I mean, it was too much random stuff thrown into a blender with the hope that it would turn out all right.Someone told me it was a comedy once, but only ONE of my group of friends gave anything resembling a laugh once, (at the final line of the film.) I'd be quite prepared to admit that I simply 'didn't get it' because it had heart, proved by the fact that I feel bad for writing this. However, it was a waste of 80 minutes and a waste of the pizza I mindlessly consumed while my brain was straining to find a plot.I take back what I wrote about it being the worst movie ever, but it was certainly the most confusing.

Great British Humour. Under rated to the Maximus. I think this movie is hilarious. If you're well versed in History or the Roman Empire, you will get a good laugh out of this. Gladiatress starts of as a typical British comedy, of the likes I haven't seen since Monty Python.It's set in Britain, around the fall of the Gaul's and Caesars' interest in Britain grows. As he investigates further, he hears warrior princesses run Britain. He has to see this!! So, the story focuses on a little British tribe with pathetic men and Warrior women as leaders. Great show for you women out there. The story centers around 3 sisters, "Dwyfuc" the princess warrior of the tribe, "Worthaboutapig" who's worth about a pig, not less than a pig!! And "Smirgut the Fierce" who's loosing her fierceness because of childbirth.When the Romans kidnap "Dwyfuc", her sister "Worthaboutapig" gets chosen to get her back. When "Smirgut the Fierce" helps her, there adventures land all 3 sisters in the gladiator ring facing "Schlaffwaffe The Goth". From there the plot just thickens!!
