It's allright. Only.


Not one I'd choose to watch again ... and that's my real test of a movie. Really doesn't warrant it's ranking if compared to the incredible 1960 epic 'Spartacus', now that is a gladiator movie, and then some.

Mediocre movie with predictable ending and some of the most cringeworthy dialog ever.

If you love Jesus Lizard and are 100% proud of it, copy this and make it your signature!

The Academy disagrees. Deservingly lauded.

Well "The Academy" is full of s..t so who cares what they think.

The Academy also wet their pants over Titanic which is one of the most average films that has dominated the Oscars in the year it was nominated. I also think Gladiator, whilst a good film gets a ridiculous amount of praise on here. 8.5 seems excessive when you compare it to Spartacus. There's plenty of superior films below this in the IMDb in my opinion.

Did you really think the ending was predictable? I didn't think it was. I liked how they managed to make that sort of ending into a happy one.

DISPLAY thy breasts, my Julia!

I watched it in the cinema when it came out and was unimpressed. Just gave up again after 25 minutes. Really really poor film...
