An Epic

Rating: 10/10 (30 October 2003)

I thought this movie a bit of a throwback to the days of the epic film. This had everything movies like Spartacus and Ben Hur had, plus a bit extra since special effects are so much more advanced. The storylines which were woven together I found compelling. The sets were majestic, especially looking at old Rome. This movie obviously had a lot of careful planning and hard work, and it paid off beautifully. It even does well on small screen. But it is much better on the large.
