Simply Amazing

Rating: 10/10 (6 July 2015)

Greetings from Lithuania.
WOW. This is the first word that comes to the mind after credits of this movie starts rolling. Terrific story, spellbinding craftsmanship, acting, music - everything works here on the highest order. It's so much more that a simple epic, yet witnessing this movie first time in 2015, "epic" seems was born with "Ben-Hur" 1959.
There isn't anything new that i can add in praising review of this magnificent motion picture. If you haven't seen it yet, and maybe afraid of it's release date or length - don't be - this is amazingly entertaining epic / adventure / drama which doesn't feel or look dated a bit. And this kind of story won't age, it's timeless.
Overall, 11 Oscars (first off three movies with this amount awards) proves, that they weren't sparing when creating this piece. Every scene looks astonishingly even now, that is because it was a pre-CGI era, and we can only be thankfully for this. In this movie i saw so many things that later were copied in another epics (especialy "Gladiator") - and what was surprising to me - i liked this movie more that "Gladiator" - it is THAT good. Watch this film - it is amazing in every aspect.
