The Gladiator..
From the exciting opening battle onwards throughout the film, this is really an example of fantastic filmmaking. The film is paced like lightning, and the two and a half hour running time goes by very quickly.
The film provides one stunning visual after another. Visually, yes, it is pretty gory and violent sometimes, but I think these moments are handled fairly well and quickly.
All considered, I find it very hard to find fault with "Gladiator". The film is just as stunning as impressive and in my opinion it's one of the best, if not the best, historical movies ever made.

The Gladiator is all around a great movie. My personal favorite historical movie is probably Schindler's List. Although Hotel Rwanada and the HBO mini series Band of Brothers are also real good
