Awesome! Totally Awesome!

Rating: Null/10 (23 October 2004)

Up until last night I had only seen bits and parts of this movie. After watching it I was blown away! This movie stands out from any historical movie I have ever seen. Everything about this movies is perfect... especially the music by my all time favorite music producer Hans Zimmer. I have a lot of respect for Hans, all his work is SO original and every piece he does for movies fit so well.
I was surprised when I saw the credits a the end and it said this was directed by Ridley Scott. He really is an awesome Director. If he can produce a movies like Alien, which was also very very good. And then produce something totally different which is just as amazing... I think that makes him a Director that should always be remembered.
IF you've seen bits of this film but your put off because your not really into the Roman style... WATCH IT! You will surprise yourself and have a totally different view on this type of movie.
This film has become one of my top 3 films of all time... the others being LEON, The Shawshank Redemption and now Gladiator. Blade Runner is also a massive favorite of mine.
If you haven't seen Gladiator... please... watch this movie.
