Maximus is my hero

Rating: 10/10 (1 June 2000)

Though not unique in plot, the movie is very well done. Most powerful for me was Russell Crowe's portrayal of Maximus. I fully believed in Maximus as noble and honorable and would have fought with him. It is a hard role to do so well. The movie was gorgeous to watch, Ridley Scott crafted some very memorable scenes.
