Outstanding....

Rating: 9/10 (12 December 2003)

This movie far exceeded my expectations. I wanted to see it and was interested after seeing the previews and reading articles earlier in the year. I am admittedly not a big Tom Cruise fan so I went expecting to hopefully see a "good" movie. I thought it was much greater than that. It was definately one of the best I've seen in a while. As it was when I first saw Gladiator, I wanted to see this again right after I walked out of the theater. As usual, Hans Zimmer makes a great movie even greater with a wonderful score. I highly recommend this if you're a big fan of historical epics like I am.
