Excellent epic that will prove to be a classic

Rating: Null/10 (8 May 2000)

Movie like this and Braveheart have not been made in decades. The action sequences are stupendous, the cast is phenomenal, Russell Crowe gives an Oscar like performance as the hero, Maximus, Joaquin Phoenix portrayal of the cowardly and fearful Caesar is excellent, has a great supporting cast with the likes of Richard Harris and Oliver Reed. Time will prove this to be a classic.
