Better than Braveheart

Rating: Null/10 (5 May 2000)

This is the movie that will make Russell Crowe a major star! The cinematography is wonderful, and Russell Crowe is just outstanding as Maximus. Although the film drags just a tiny bit after the intial opening scenes, the ending makes up for it completely. If you liked Braveheart, you will LOVE Gladiator.
