While it was a good movie...perhaps great Animosity Send a noteboard - 26/09/2009 07:40:34 PM
best movie ever??? not so much. in my humble opinion. It had all the key elements of a great show. Story. Good acting. Pace of the story unfolding. Action (very well done). Ridley Scott has always impressed me with his directing. Russell Crowe, what can you say. He is excellent in nearly every film I have seen that he has been in. But what keeps Gladiator from being the best movie ever for me is that it took too long to hook me into caring what happens and then it took too long to get there. Once again, just my opinion.
WOOOOOOOOOO! PIG SOOOOOOOIE! GO HOGS GO!

Interesting perspective MalkierKnight - 27/09/2009 10:07:45 PM 673 Views

You should. The supporting characters really save the film, esp Norton as the Leper King. Bookwyrm - 27/09/2009 07:05:37 AM 568 Views
