My favourite movie

Rating: 10/10 (14 May 2005)

This is the best film I've ever seen. It's the only film I'm giving a 10/10 at the ranking. This movie has it all. Excellent historical locations, a superb story, great acting and really exciting action scenes. The Gladiator is a story about men, revenge, honor and bravery. And it's perfect in every way. You couldn't find a more masculine character than Maximus, and this character fits the great story perfectly. Good job, Russel Crowe. It was also interesting to see Ralph Moeller as one of the gladiators. The first battle in Germania is especially awesome. I guess it's one of the most well made battles in movie history. The only slightly negative comment I have about this film, is that the ending is a clichÃ© and too much of a Hollywood ending. But that's easily forgotten in this true masterpiece. By the way, the music is VERY good.
