Personally I'm not really sure how this movie made it so high up on the list. Don't get me wrong. It is a really good movie but there is nothing great about it. The main problem is that I found it very difficult to connect with the characters.
I just watched it again this week and realized that the costumes are wonderful, the cinematography is beautiful, the acting is good. Just not GREAT.
That said, I would watch it again. Not every movie has to be GREAT. It just has to be worth watching. Gladiator is worth watching.
