Spartacus earns a dismal accuracy grade.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A historian analyzes a battle scene from Stanley Kubrick's Spartacus, awarding it a low grade for its historical accuracy. Released in 1960, Spartacus remains one of Kubrick's most acclaimed and beloved films.
The historian shares praise for the sequence's early moments as the Roman army moves into battle formations, but shares some harsh criticism regarding how completely the actual fighting deviates from reality. Check out Dr. Konijnendijk's full comment below as well as his score for the film out of 10:
“That three line formation is what you’re seeing depicted here. We are told that they would advance into battle in a sort of checkerboard formation… and then as they march into battle, we don’t really know what happened next. Somehow, these armies would fight with coherent front lines… “This is a great example of a director really paying attention to the source material and trying to reconstruct it as best he could in terms of the approach of the Roman army. He’s done a really good job of depicting that… but then when it comes to the actual fighting, it’s a brawl.
