Gladiator II
The first gladiator is my all time favorite movie. This movie was actually really good though, and it’s the first good movie I’ve seen in theatres in a while. Anytime the movie had any reference to Maximus or played any similar score from the first movie I got bricked up….
I thought they did a good job with the whole storyline. The only part that was confusing was how the emperor brothers (Geta & Caracalla) came to be after Commudus but looking it up gives you the answer. The different characters were great and how you liked them and all of the sudden you want them to get cooked. When it played “now we are free” for the end of the movie/end credits (same song from the first movie) I almost died and also wished Hans Zimmer did the score for this movie…
There were two old ladies next to me (70+) and towards the end of the movie they were both sitting straight up out of the recliners on the edge of their seats lol (rightfully so though).
