Gladiator- a thriller to go down in history
Gladiator opens with a captivating and impressively filmed first scene. The acting never fails throughout the film, from the first scene to the last. Joaquin Phoenix supported Crowe superbly, and kept the movie rolling steadily without lagging in any place. The DVD also has a well done documentery on the topic of actual gladiators. Also included on the specials is the making of "Gladiator". The acting is captivating, and excellent, the special effects also excellent. Russell Crowe deserves every bit of praise he has recieved.-Ollwerther '01
