Wowww

Rating: 9/10 (7 December 2006)

This movie gets a 9 out of 10. The only reason I took the one off is for the one scene when he returns home to see his family/has a flashback :( That made me cry.. I don't think they could have picked a better starring actor for the role- although if you had asked me before I saw it whether or not I'd say Russell Crowe was the man for the job I probably would have been unsure. It's just a really powerful/unforgettable movie.
The fighting scenes are incredibly believable and the costumes are great as well. The music is perfect for every scene and the "colosseum" is incredibly believable as well!
