Product: Gladiator [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 5.0
Gripping from beginning to end.
Russell Crowe definately deserved the Oscar for this wonderful film. He was certainly convincing as a gladiator on the warpath after his wife and son are killed on orders from the ruthless Commodus. This movie has you on edge from beginning to end especially during the many fight scenes. For me, the most emotional scene was at the end when Maximus dies. A tear-jerker!
