A great cast!

Rating: 9/10 (16 May 2000)

To be honest, I enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would (I assumed it would be the usual Ridley Scott 'action-packed' fare--no offense intended towards Mr. Scott). Even though there are a few minor historical inconsistencies, what makes it fun to watch are the great cast members (Sir Richard Harris, Sir Derek Jacobi, Russell Crowe, Oliver Reed, Joaquin Phoenix, etal) and the interesting camera shots.
All in all, a good movie--one for which I gladly paid full price.
