It was pretty good, with only a few flaws.

Rating: 10/10 (8 May 2000)

This is one of the best movies I have seen in a while, it has everything too (Good story, pretty good dialoge, good acting, superb visuals, pretty good physics, and plenty of gore). The characters all had pretty good backstories, and you never really knew what was going to happen.
But I did see a few mistakes...one at the begining, at the battle scene, before anyone had even shot an arrow or swung a sword, they show a close up of the barbarians and they have arrows all around them. Another mistake were the Tigers...now I know I couldn't have been the only one to notice this, but if they were so vicious and so mean why does it show them laying down after he let that other guy live? And another thing wrong with the tigers was that they were on chains held by slaves, now after a while wouldn't you think the tigers would realize that they could go get the slaves?! Hum...I'm not that looks for every error in a movie, but these stood out big time.
Hehe, im getting all off subject here, but this really was a great movie and like I said it have everything and the characters stick in your head, it also had one of the best endings I've seen in my opinion.
Final rating: 9/10
