Gladiator II
From director Ridley Scott, Gladiator II continues the epic saga of power, intrigue, and vengeance set in Ancient Rome.
Years after witnessing the death of the revered hero Maximus at the hands of his uncle, Lucius (Paul Mescal) is forced to enter the Colosseum after his home is conquered by the tyrannical Emperors who now lead Rome with an iron fist. With rage in his heart and the future of the Empire at stake, Lucius must look to his past to find strength and honor to return the glory of Rome to its people.
“Scott’s return to the Roman arena is something of a repeat, but it’s still a thrilling spectacle and Mescal a formidable lead. We are entertained.” ~Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
“Gladiator II gets the job done. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, and it doesn’t have to. I don’t for one second think Scott is setting out here trying to make an absolute masterpiece; he’s content to simply make a damn entertaining action pic with an pulpy old school sensibility.” ~Chris Evangelista, SlashFilm
