Good Movie Destroyed By The Hype

Rating: 5/10 (26 April 2011)

When you watch the movie at a purely entertainment value standpoint it is a pretty entertaining movie with the exception of how weak Commudius was. When I watched the movie I thought look there are several problems with it compared to what actually happened because the entire story is fictional, however, it is entertaining. I also liked how it ended with Russel Crowe dieing and being reunited with his family. It was a nice moment to see him finally happy.
The problem was the hype. Throughout my life from the age 10-14 I always heard how this was the best movie in existence. Everyone said that is was much better than any other movie. Then I saw it when I was 14. I looked at it at the and said it was good but it was not that good. The hype ruined the entire experience of the movie for me.
