Rating: 4.0
Loved it for what it was!
I went into this movie with expectations for what it was. An action flick with great battle sequences and enough story to fill the gaps. I was not expecting a complicated storyline just enough substance to keep my interest. I cannot believe Russell Crowe received Best Actor from this film, but oh well.What this movie did have was incredible cinematography and top flight action sequences. The initial battle in Germania was amazingly shot. As was the first battle in the coliseum with the chariots. I did find myself losing concentration at times in between the battles, but very much enjoyed the movie never-the-less.
