I really ought to use smiley faces more often-8-->~)D..bah.......humbug !
Anyway- I didn't say I didn't like the film- I did !
I really like Oliver Reed (the world has lost a truly dedicated drinker- and a fine actor)and Richard Harris and Russel Crowe. (As far as Spartacus goes- it was ok but Kirk just does not convince)
I don't mind seeing big- budget blockbusters- they are films to be enjoyed or not based on whatever criteria you choose.
It was colorful- had a hero and a villain- had some plot, the underdog triumphed even though he died in the end- good ol' Hollywood fare.
You don't have to give grammar lessons- but don't expect that a film like Gladiator should be judged on its accuracy- leave that out of it.
And your defense of your use of historical is hysterical.
