Gladiator
An amazing movie with awesome cinematography and incredible battle scenes. But, unlike many other action movies, does not lack in plot. Russel Crowe does a magnificent job, as does Joaquin Phoenix(brother of River)in the role of Commodus. Now that we are on the subject of Commodus, this movie is somewhat historically accurate, seeing as Commodus actually fought in gladiatorial battles claiming over one thousand victories in his lifetime, and was planning on moving into the gladiatorial barracks prior to his assassination at the hands of his family, though not Lucilla. Lucilla had tried to have him assassinated, but he figured it out, and had her put to death. But, this movie rocks, so, I encourage you to buy it. And the soundtrack. Very Sweet.UT VINCERE AUT MORI. -Gladiator motto (Either conquer or die.)
