Let this amazing quote tell you how good it is.
Commodus: What is your name? Gladiator: My name is Gladiator
Gladiator turns his back to Commodus
Commodus: How dare you turn your back to me. Slave. You will remove your helmet and tell
me your name.
Gladiator turns and removes his helmet
Gladiator: My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Leader of the Felix legion and commander
to the armies of the north. Loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius.
Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife, and I shall have my
vengeance in this l life or the next.
The quote goes something like that, but when Russell Crowe let's rip with it, it doesn't half sound impressive.
Along with tigers, big fat Gaullish warriors and a wonderfully created Rome, this film goes down in history like nothing else.
