Great action

Rating: 9/10 (15 January 2001)

I went into this movie expecting alot, and it delivered. The action sequences are spectacular and the performances are very good as well. Russell Crowe is great in the lead role and Joaquin Phoenix should receive an Academy Award nomination for his performance as Commodus. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a historical epic or just something to rent for the weekend. 9/10
