   To me, a movie like Blade Runner (with all it's scenography and   
   atmosphere AND the deeper  "What defines a human"  idea) has never   
   been done before (I bet some smartmouth will go "2001" but that's   
   something different). Gladiator is not unique in that way, sure it's a   
   great movie and I guess I had a tear or two in my eyes when I watched   
   it but it's not a classic
