good job of the responsibles during the creation of the movie Gladiator in creating this scene , many things are very compatible of realistic roman legions tatics and strategis aplications during the time of Marcus Aurelius as emperor of Rome , it is important to note that the roman legionarie should not express emotions during the battlefield , then the impartialy of the roman legionrie in the facing of the battlefield in the period of Post-Marian Reforms , maked many barbarians tribes as well kingdoms that faced Rome think that the legionries were automatous under magic control of the roman emperor , lol , but in fact the 'magic' was in the hard training of the legionarie. This battle scene remakes the part of history in that , Marcus Aurelius roman emperor during that time , was impregnated in a constant war against the germans , for many years he deployed the legions to defend the roman borders with germany , however , once Comodus took the power with the death of Marcus Aurelius , instead of keep Marcus Aurelius works , stop it making weak agreements with the germans , making his father's works having unconclusive results and then this is when the iron hand of Roman war machine start becoming weak.
