Simply amazing.

Rating: 10/10 (24 November 2005)

This is a truly amazing story, describing a sad story about a man's life. Gladiator is sad, action-packed, and some history, all in one. Russell Crowe does an amazing job portraying Maximus, and I can see why he won a best actor award.
This next paragraph may contain a *possible* spoiler.
The story is like no other, about a man who's family was killed by a king, and goes to seek revenge as a gladiator. I was able to see this on TV, after my friend told me about how good it was. I also liked it, for its incredible acting, and unique story.
I love the characters in this story, especially Maximus and Commodus. I knew this story would be pretty good, like all Ridley Scott films. This is a must see.
