Gladiator is a very portentous film.... that is to say, it is "momentous", marvelous; amazing; and/or prodigious.
Braveheart is an insult to the accomplishments and memory of William Wallace. Unlike a quality film like Gladiator, Braveheart is a pretentious pile of steaming skite.

I didnt, but almost cried on CLICK to.
The toughest and most extensive crying incident I've ever had at the sight of moving pictures forming a story, though, when I was watching the final episodes of the SIX FEET UNDER.
You, who have seen it know what happens there and you can most likely relate to my tears... It was unbelievable. I think I was in a state of crying over two full episodes. It was two hours of catharsis and it was great.
...Now I'll think about some non-serial tears...

The whole world cried for that one. How unfortunate.

Yeah, much as it pains me to criticise a James Cameron movie (he directed some of my all-time faves: Terminators 1 & 2 and Aliens), Titanic must get the award for the most two-dimensional, stereotyped characters ever and the most feeble CGI scene (even for '97) in a multi-gajillion dollar movie (the high p.o.v. shot of the ship with a few crudely-animated sprites moonwalking across the deck).
2 hours? It felt more like 22

I am unable to glean what your meaning might be. Would you please try to explain it again.

Political intrigue, war, enslavement, bereavement...all subjects entitled to a serious treatment in my opinion! Gladiator doesn't take itself any more seriously than any comparable film.
What makes the end of the film so moving IMO is the way that Maximus' love for his family has been his motivation throughout all his ordeals. The violence and political intrigue throughout is a backdrop for a very moving human story and I'm not ashamed to admit that I cry every time I see that ending!
And the "Honor Him" theme...just beautiful! Among my favourite film music ever...along with the theme from The Vikings (and of course "The Raiders March"
).
