Spartacus 1960

I'm surprised to find that I don't believe this movie holds up to modern audiences. It has some good cinematography and is good for its time, but not that watchable today. Only Kubrick fans who want to be educated on his early work should watch this. Kubricks previous movie, Paths of Glory, is a much easier recommendation and a much more reasonable length as well.

@jidar I find it intersting that you point out Kubrick fans should watch this while he himself disowned the movie and did not include it as part of his canon

@finfan Of course you would watch it if you were studying Kubrick, good or bad or it's his work. You might not enjoy it very much (I didn't) but it's still a part of his canon.
