Best film of 2000!

Rating: 10/10 (9 June 2000)

MI:2 may beat Gladiator at the box office for total receipts, but I'm casting my vote for Gladiator to stomp the competition at the Oscars. I realize, of course, that it probably won't, given the Academy's preference for art over entertainment. But still, if Braveheart (another excellent film) can win, then maybe there is hope for the sword and sandal epic yet!
