Movie has no story, it is clearly aiming to get some money. The story feels missing some parts, people jump into conversations without the required information to explain what they say. There are mostly no characters other than the main 2-3 ones, no explanation how the main one becomes the top character, no training or build-up of the main character. Tiny guy becomes a hero just because he bites a monkey. Lots of well built gladiators around him, but no camera time on them, no scripts. Denzel is good, and the images are good quality, but the script is almost nonexistent.. Just watch the first one and watch this one after it, and you will know what I mean
