When this movie came out it was a blast of action with a powerful story and the right man for the role. It still is a good movie today, and I'll give it the once every year or so viewing it deserves, without commercials, of course. I can't think of another movie that balances grit and majesty so well. Even though this movie is long, it stays captivating and enthralling with the great performance by both Crowe and Phoenix. And how cool is the name "Maximus Deciumus Meridius."
