Thoughts on the film ' Gladiator' please.

dunno isnt it a bit gay?

No, thats 300

Gladiator great in my opinion. Oliver Reed and Richard Harris are in it. That should be enough for any film afficionado.

Ripping yarn

Very enjoyable...8/10 for me.

A good film indeed,Russell Crow did look a bit gay,I think this was Richard Harris's last film,but would be in my top ten.

Hollywood inspired ending spoiled an otherwise excellent spectacle.

Class film.

It was definitely Oli Reeds last film as he died whilst filming.

wasn't Harris in Harry Potter?

anyway, I was on hols in 2001 at a resort where all the bars showed pirated films most of the day, so watched this at least 2 or 3 times in the week

Shrew,yes you are spot on I got that mixed up with RH

300 is an awesome film
Gladiator is an excellent film spoiled only by the New Zealand thug Russell Crowe.

Think the baddy ( Marcus Aurelius ) was a good bloke apparently
Hollywood taking no notice of the facts as usual.

Excellent film which I enjoyed, but wouldn't come anywhere near my top 10

Marcus Aurelius was a great philosopher ...who is still read today .

A great philosopher...now reduced to the dude that wanted to $hag his sister

Ranked 116th on my list

pretty good though

good film with some great action sequences, spoiled slightly by soppy ending . not top 10 but definitely top 100.

I like it, also like the gimmic 'spaniard' refference to modern day wrestling.

Marcus Aurelius is the good guy Brodie

Spartacus is better

Not the same without Fash,Uli and wolfman

Good film wish I had seen it in the cinema first and not on dvd, Olllie Reed was excellent in it. I would score the film 7.5/10 which is quite a high score for me.

Yeah ,got the wrong fella tober. His son Commodus was the baddy.
Facts....pah!

vastly overrated. 5/10.

great film

good film i thought....not historically accurate though by far.

I think Commodus was the only Emperor to have fought in the arena as a gladiator. Somebody can check Wikipaedia, I can't be bothered.

I enjoyed the film though.

commudus did pretend fighting apparently...and maximus never even existed.

I dont understand.

For a film to be good it has to be 100% historically accurate?

Yes, that's why i loved the Life of Brian

:D

ok.someone is going to say...so here goes.
romans!what did they ever do for us? eh?

No they won't

Gladiator is good but Spartacus is a classic. I do like Russell Crowe as an actor though most of the time. Gerard Butler however in 300 delivers one of the most wooden performances ever.
