"I don't know about you, but I have a huge problem with the idea of Orlando Bloom commanding an army. In fact, I think I just have a huge problem with Orlando Bloom full stop. The man could no more command an army than Steven Hawking can control his arms and legs. You watch Gladiator and you’re under no doubt that testosterone-soaked Russell Crowe could have actually survived in ancient Rome. Bloom would have been lion food. Crowe could walk into a room and command the attention of every soul within. Bloom would struggle to open the door. We've established the problem of having an effete blouse-wearing mincer as the leader of an army, granted, but Balian is actually a bit of a... well, a [ninny]. He kills a priest, hooks up with his rich poppa (then proceeds to get him killed), [penetrates] someone else’s wife despite the death of his own wife and child not a few months before, gets beaten up lots and gets roundly trounced by a superior army for days on end. Not exactly a hero you can root for, is he?"
The preceding excerpt contained spoilers, haha

That and the running round the supermarket shouting 'Sweep'
"Gladiator for women and effete homosexuals"
For some reason, it's never caught my attention. Though I can appreciate absolute classics like The Godfather.
For a movie buff, that's criminal.
