Gladiator
I was one of a few who didn't enjoy Alien at all, which was considered one of Ridley Scott's best films. Because of this, I had an overwhelming sense of dread that I wouldn't enjoy Gladiator.
Fuck I was wrong.
Gladiator is a masterpiece and it lives up to the hype. A perfect classic revenge story that I wish I had watched sooner. 10/10.
