If they called this movie something other than Gladiator II, it would had been half decent to watch. It doesn't feel like a follow up to the first movie at all. More like a mix of Rome the TV series, and 300. But it doesn't feel like it does either well. Getting tired of these remakes counting on nostalgia to make up for missing creativity, writing and general direction. The cast can't be to blame at all, the movie was missing passion, and you can tell.
