Great film!

Rating: Null/10 (4 February 2001)

First, I must admit bias. Any film dealing with ancient Rome stirs my interest. I had no problem, whatsoever, with the CGI in this film. Rome has never looked so good! The sets, costumes and acting are all of superior quality. The score, by Hans Zimmer, is beautiful.
Now, if you want a history lesson...read a textbook. Just as Titanic was a fictional story within a factual framework, so to is Gladiator. Few films dealing with history are accurate. View Gladiator for what it is, a grand spectacle and a great film.
