#7 Alltime: Gladiator

Another outstanding performance by Russell Crowe as Maximus along with the excellent and detailed direction by Ridley Scott combines to make this #7 in my Top Movie list. The battle sequences seem very realistic and made me believe I was there. Richard Harris played Caesar remarkably. Buut it was Joaquin Pheonix that stole the show. His performance as Commodus made him a star ( Not a rapper). Oliver Reed died during filming and his role the rest of the movie was computer engineered. A fantasic and historic film!! A must see.. You won't be disappointed!!
