Gladiator II

I didn't see the original at the Cinema for some reason, However it did end up in my DVD then Blu-ray Collection. Trouble is Ridley Scott films tend to be either a Peach or a Lemon. I'll sit tight & wait for reviews. If I'm bored I may rent it on one of the streaming services.
 
I might watch it at some point but it seems like a re-tread of the original in terms of what happens in the arena fighting. Not feeling overly enthused.
 
So Zimmer gave us one of the most brilliant soundtracks that perfectly captured the mood and tone of the original annnnnnnd this is the absolute cluster **** we get. Trailer was even an utter edited mess.
 
Maybe Scott thinks because Top Gun did well the nostalgia pull is good enough to dig up this dead carcass of a movie and make a franchise out of it.

Except Crowe isn't in it.
 
The cast doesn't look great for this. All actors off TV shows.
Denzel and Pedro at the very least might take offence at that!

have to say though the trailer and more importantly the soundtrack in it doesn't inspire confidence. if they thought that music was a good idea for the trailer i dread to think what the actual film holds.
