    The following concludes:

    - Despite the many inaccuracies in the movie, it is mostly faithful to the story of Spartacus. It could be said that on balance that while the film is not correct, but it is far more historically accurate than the average Hollywood blockbuster.

    That might be true as far as the major facts are concerned but you
    would be mad if you trust the intrpretation of a 21st century to give
