Never lets up. Keeps moving. There is little or no
suspense just drive. And the audio helps move you
along. But I wonder if 80BCE Rome knew the
existence of the word “hell”.

I am very shocked that this movie did not make the top 100. I don’t even really care for period action films, but Russell Crowe sucked me in! I can still feel the dew on my face as he rides at the beginning of the movie that misty morning to rallie his troops. His speech to them is so inspirational, I cry. For the rest of the movie, I am on the edge of my seat, wondering if Maximus will live or die. This movie was epic. There were so many other movies on the top 100 list that did not even meet this movie in caliber. Hopefully, when AFI revotes, this movie will seriously be considered, as sit should.
