Gladiator 2

do you think russell crowe should have had cameo in this as a completely different character? a older fat senator or something?
Yuck!



Well… the film was pretty much as I expected.

Being Ridley Scott, it’s never outright bad or poorly executed or anything. He can do stuff like this with his eyes closed. But there really isn’t a need for a sequel and this just confirms it.

Mostly I just felt like watching the first one again while I was watching this…

Watch it for Denzel if you must.

My greatest disappointment with Ridley Scott is that I can remember when he used to make Ridley Scott films.



Perhaps I am being too harsh, but this movie was horrendous. It was filled with convenient twists, plotholes and overall mediocre acting. Scenes that did not make sense whatsoever where shoehorned for drama purposes. Just like with Napoleon, at some point it was too fast paced. Also the repetitive quoting of famous lines from I got cringe toward the end.


It's an insult to the astounding quality of I.



I don't actually wear pants.

The first Gladiator is fine on its own. There was no need for a sequel, and everything I've seen about the sequel only makes me feel less inclined to watch it. Honestly I'm also not a Denzel Washington fan. I always get the sense he's trying to be some debonair noir actor from the 50s but without the sophistication. I've already put too much energy into discussing Gladiator II than is necessary so I'm going to stop now.
