Masterclass

Rating: 9/10 (27 October 2018)

Not only the absolute top production of Gladiator, but also Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix giving some of their best performances, make Gladiator to one of the few top movies that tell us stories of and in the times of the Roman Empire: Ben Hur (1959), The Robe (1953), Quo Vadis (1951) and The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964) comes to mind.
This is certainly one of Ridley Scott's best and most ambitious work he has ever done. One of those movies that will never ever grow old.
