Synopsis:
Goran Visnjic (ER) stars in Spartacus, based on the epic tale of one man`s leadership during one of history`s most legendary fights for freedom. In 72 B.C., a time when the Roman Empire`s brutal force was far-reaching, each conquered country meant new slaves to do the bidding of their Roman masters. Sold into slavery as a young boy after witnessing his father`s murder, Spartacus eventually grew to lead a slave revold against Rome`s powerful generals and politicians. The profound impact of Spartacus` challenge to the Roman Empire in the name of freedom was felt for years to come.

Your Opinions and Comments
A commendable film with sadly few extras on the disc.
A note to the original reviewer, Sue Davies: Mr. Visnjic comes from Croatia, which is close to Italy and Austria, not Bulgaria. This is easily obtainable information:
