... sound and fury signifying nothing

Rating: 7/10 (29 November 2000)

Nice visuals and a feel of an epic isn't enough to un-lameify this movie. What the hell is it about? Some guy who kicks ass as a general kicks ass as a gladiator until he kicks supreme ass. Big deal. Where's the story? What's the story? Sure, there's that little blurb about his wife and child, but there was no emotion in it.
This movie was a lame, lame knockoff of a much better Braveheart.
