Manage episode 455226033 series 3593136
How does Gladiator 2 compare to the original, and does it live up to the legacy? In this episode of Rogue Reviews, we review the long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott’s 2000 classic. With a new story, fresh gladiator, and a star-studded cast, including Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal, and Denzel Washington, the film promises big spectacle. But does it capture the emotional depth and weight of the original?
We explore the action, stunning visuals, and impressive CGI, while questioning whether the film relies too much on familiar tropes and fails to stand out.
Is Gladiator 2 just a retread, or does it offer something new? Or is it another example of Hollywood recycling old ideas?
