Excellent

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2000)

I have seen it twice, and I have enjoyed it thoroughly. The acting is great, the battle scenes are spectacular, and the directing is wonderful. All in all, this is a great movie, better than most of the other drivel being put out these days. As everyone says, Russell Crowe was wonderful, but the real surprise for me was the performance of Joaquin Phoenix, who was perfect as Commodus.
