Also known as Classics 42 at UCLA. It's my tenth and last week of class so I thought I'd give you guys the list of films we watched in case you're ever in the mood for a toga epic. Leave a comment if you'd like a full review on any of these films beyond the rating I'll give below. And keep in mind, while I love to analyze and discuss films, I will love anything that entertains me even if it might not be the best reviewed or most accurate film ever made, so I've rated these films based on how much I enjoyed watching them. For example, Spartacus has interesting commentary on socialism and fantastic cinematography, but it's not necessarily the most fun movie to watch on a Saturday night. So again, if you'd like a more detailed review of the cinematic/social aspects of the film, leave a comment!
1. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure: 3/5
2. Ben-Hur (1959): 5/5
3. Quo Vadis (1951): 3/5
4. Spartacus (1960): 3/5
5. Cleopatra (1963): 4/5
6. Life of Brian: 5/5
7. Fellini Satyricon: 1/5 (this movie is extremely polarizing; you either love it or hate it)
8. Gladiator: 5/5
9. Agora: 5/5
10. The Eagle: 4/5
