one of the most powerful movies ever

Rating: 10/10 (1 June 2000)

Russell Crowe delivers his best performance to date as Maximus. He's incredibly charismatic and attracts all the attention of the audience which is the basic success of the movie.The battle sequence at the beginning is superb , cinematography is great. Not a perfect movie but definitely intense and with such a power and impact it destroys every weakness in the screenplay.
