directed by Ridley Scott
This film essentially rapes history... but you won't care too much. The story that's been concocted is preposterous, but well-told and looks beautiful. Plus, there's lots of fighting and blood and the ending will make everyone happy. It's a man movie hidden behind a sword-and-sandals epic. Roadhouse meets Spartacus. Not as campy as the first and not as brilliant as the second. But a truly fun film to watch. It was my favorite of the 2000 best picture nominees, so I'm glad it won.
