  • My main conclusion was that it was nice of them to give Ridley Scott a tonne of cash to remake the first film but with an upbeat ending this time and pretending that it’s a sequel even if the rehashed plot points don’t really work in the context. However, don’t worry about that they’ve turned it up to 11! Instead of the Romans fighting unwashed Germans in a forest, we now have a huge invasion from sea! You liked tigers and chariots in the arena, now we have rhinos and sea battles! You were thrilled by the fridging of one woman to give the main character his motivation, in GladIIator they fridge two!
