The entire concept felt ridiculous—football, sharks, giant baboons? The script was very weak, even though the production quality was quite good. Denzel Washington stood out from the rest of the cast; he was a heavyweight in this film. If it weren't for his performance, I would have completely dismissed this movie.I have a solid script, but I lack connections to present it to the film company. However, such rubbishes can be easily overcome. If you pay close attention, many movies and series that lack a clear plan for future episodes often end up being disappointing when production companies attempt to create new installments solely to replicate past success. This was a clear insult to Gladiator 1.
