2000 Best Picture
Premiered May 1, 2000 in Los Angeles
Budget $103 Million
Gross $188 Million
Gladiator is as close to the perfect movie as any Oscar winning Best Pictures have gotten so far. This is a beautiful film with great sets and a superb use of color. The acting was tremendous and the stunts and special effects were the best of any movie we've seen so far on our journey.
The heart of the movie is the great story. Maximus is the most courageous and honorable character of any we've watching so far. Unlike William Wallace who gets sidetracked, Maximus never loses focus. He is the ultimate protagonist.
Callie
Favorite: I liked the honor portrayed by Maximus.
Least Favorite: I thought the after life scenes were weird.
Joel
Favorite: The honor and courage showed by Maximus. He is a character that ever man can look up to.
Least Favorite: The actress who played "Lucilla" was a little wooden. They could have cast a little better for that character.
