The juxtaposition of emotions makes this movie.

Rating: 9/10 (1 December 2000)

Cinematography,costuming, acting and music all played their part to create this spell-binding movie. I loved it from the getgo. There was spectacle and there was intimacy; love and hate;noise and quiet; treachery and trust.
Gladiator has taken its place with Ben Hur and Spartacus in the triumvirate of Classical Roman movies. Bravo Ridley Scott.
