Story was interesting but something is missing. The format it was filmed on made it look too clean. It’s missing the depth of real film vs digital. For certain the soundtrack was nonexistent in comparison to the first one. The soundtrack for Gladiator is one I love and still listen too.
The protagonist of the Caesar’s seemed forced with little or no backstory. The first film had a better setup which was relatable since it was a son scorned. The Cesar’s in II are just brats who liked power and one was inflicted with a degenerative brain disease from syphilis.
Definitely wait for video.
