All time favorite

Rating: 10/10 (27 July 2019)

It has now been 19 years since I watched this movie for the first time..
And from what I can remember I have never (before or after) watched a movie twice in cinemas. Gladiator however I watched three times.. and the first time I just never wanted it to end.
It's a pretty simple story. The hero gets betrayed and seeks his revenge against the villain. But I don't think I have ever seen that kind of storyline be better told than in Gladiator. The scene "I am Maximus Decimus Meridius.. ...and I will have my vengeance. In this life or the next." is probably my favorite in movie history.
It's not really historically accurate but I don't care. It works and is very engaging.
Still to this day my favorite movie of all time.
