Julius Caeser Reformer or Dictator?

Throughout his life, Julius Caesar was liked and admired by many, as well as loathed and feared by others.  Many thought that he didn't act in Rome's best interest, he was to self absorbed and eager for fame.
I personally think that  Caesar was a reformer. He ended the corrupt nature among the leaders in the senate by replacing them with trused others. He restored the cities destroyed by the republic. As well as, strengthen and expanded Rome's empire. He also did not treat defeated enimies with as much cruelty as some.
I think that maybe Caesar did want power but, he went about it in a good way  and not just for him.
