Plot: Gladiator is an epic film of love, death and betrayal set in the Roman Empire. General Maximus' success in battle earns the favour of an elderly Emperor at the expense of the Emperor's son.

Now reduced to a slave, his family dead, Maximus must fight as a gladiator to gain his freedom, and his revenge.

One of my favorite movies of all time if not my most favorite. I literally can watch this over and over again without ever growing tired or bored of it. Sometimes I like to rewatch certain scenes just because of the soundtrack alone.

It sucked how Maximus got f***ed over by Commodus. But Maximus got even at the end.

Were you honestly surprised by his betrayal? I wasn't. You know what they say though, those who do not wish for power, wield it greatest.

I know right, 'Now I Am Free' should be the soundtrack to my life, lol.

This is an old movie but I only got to watching it now. Outstanding movie but very violent but really worth watching.
