Amazing

Rating: 10/10 (7 November 2000)

This is the best movie I've ever seen. It's one of those three hour movies that seems like it's an hour long and you're disappointed that it has to end so soon. There is never a dull moment thanks to the outstanding direction of Ridley Scott. The cinematography is equally amazing as is the performance of Russell Crowe. The story is riveting, thrilling, captivating - yet plausible. It has all the ingredients of the perfect guy movie: a villain that you develop a seething hatred for, and a hero with such courage, strength and conviction that you can't help but feel his every pain, share his every emotion, and admire the hell out of him. I was so impressed by the movie I had to go back in the theatre and watch the very next showing.
