Gladiator

2000 film by Ridley Scott, starring Russell Crowe, with a really great score by Hans Zimmer.

Watched it at least once through properly and have seen it around plenty since then. Kind of sits along with Bravheart in my mind.

I'd listened to bits of the score recently from an old mix tape I made, and on August 21st 2014 it was mentioned on reddit and that inspired me to rewatch it that night.
It's very watchable, and has great elements - awesome music, some good cinematography, parts that make you sit up in your seat or shiver - but I think it's got a lot to criticise too. It's awfully one-sided, the characters are sort of all cardboard cut-outs. The main character especially. But then is it supposed to be anything other than that? It's fun to watch nonetheless, after all.
