Gladiator

Rating: 6/10 (18 June 2005)

Gladiator is a film set in roman times and the story of Maximus (Russell Crowe) a general who is betrayed and his family murdered by a prince hoping to control the empire. Also Stars (Joaquin Phoenix) as Commodus and (Connie Nielson), (Oliver Reed) and (Richard Harris) Gladiator had a very strong storyline, and powerful acting I don't generally like Russell Crowe but he delivered a great performance in the revenge, killing side of the film, but I just can't take him serious. I have always been a fan of (Joaquin Phoenix) what a talented actor, then again he has been doing it forever, great evil role I wasn't confident he would be suited to that role.
Long film, and a little bit slow, great special effects and battle scenes, enjoyable film.
