Russell Crowe is Hollywood's new favourite actor!

Rating: 9/10 (7 July 2000)

Gladiator is one of the most phenomenal movies you will see this year. With an excellent story and outstanding acting, Gladiator is definitely the most popular movie to come out in 2000. The true Roman culture and life of a gladiator is displayed through the eyes of Ripley Scott (the director). You will definitely feel as though you are Roman when this film is finished. With a powerful enemy and a damsel in distress, this clearly is one of those true action movies that almost runs along a Walt Disney storyline. During a survey for the best movie movie to be out yet this year, 89% of the votes were for Gladiator. It clearly shows that Gladiator is everything you've heard about in the reviews and comments from the IMDb users. This is a movie that if you don't like, I will be extremely shocked!
