Pluskylang Great Film overall
Bereamic Awesome Movie
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
andrewpeterfarrow One of my all time favorite Ridley Scott movies, keeps you entertained all the way through and spectacular movie making at its best
zlm-51062 I believe one of the greatest lines: My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
andrewroy-04316 Gladiator is well deserving of its legendary status. Both Crowe and Phoenix are just exceptional, both with a case for among the best performances I've ever seen. The score was amazing, the cinematography and scene progressions were impeccable, and the plot was very satisfying. Rather than the symbolic, complex idea-driven movies that I often praise, Gladiator is a tour-de-force that has a truly grand feel. Gladiator is one of the best movies I've ever seen and will always be my prime example of an epic, glorious movie.
joeantonelli1323 Russell did an amazing job playing as someone who cares for his family and Ridley did an magnificent job doing all the recreation and it shows that no one can ever hold the truth like Joaquin did in the movie that he killed his father instead of maximus
