Kde se dívat na Gladiátor II
- makdelart10. března 2026As a huge fan of Gladiator from 2000, I find this sequel to be a profanation. The film is weak in every aspect. Emotionally, I feel nothing for any of the characters: Mescal is completely devoid of charisma, Washington is over the top, Pascal looks like he's about to cry, and the others are just decorations in the scenes. The fights are completely unengaging and lack authenticity, probably because of the CGI spilling out of the screen (the scene with the sharks is pure sci-fi). The music, which was a strong asset in the original, only becomes noticeable here when it is copied from the original - which in itself is a very weak attempt to play on the viewer's emotions. To sum up: a weak film with overly obvious special effects - an unnecessary film.
- Varun5. prosince 2024This movie is grand but shallow at the same time. I watched this in IMAX and the scope of the set pieces are absolutely amazing. The lighting is also handled really well. And the fight scenes go hard, it’s shot with clarity and the sound design makes it perfectly impactful. On the one hand the powerfully emotive acting does affect the gravitas of various scenes, but the character writing and story is weak and hence it fails to pull any of your heart strings. It felt more like a nice looking entertaining flick to pass the time but not much complexity to care enough about the story. The emperors this time around are two caricaturish lame villains with no backstory and zero bite. Paul Mescal is fantastic, never seen him embody such a ferocious masculine personality. I wish we could see at least some camaraderie between him and his teammates but there’s none. At least his conversations with Ravi was a nice touch. Denzel is also masterful as usual, using his cunning wiles to ascend the ladder, but in the end his plans also get a bit comical, which is inevitable when dealing with empty character writing for the emperors. God they really underutilised the legacy characters, Grachhus is barely in the movie while Lucilla isn’t up to a whole lot of scheming here and is mostly relegated to being a grieving mother. I enjoyed seeing Pedro Pascal but also it seemed too similar to Maximus’s character so it felt like a repeat, I guess I noticed it more since I watched the first movie 2 days before this sequel. Spoiler Ahead. I also feel the Lucius reveal was kind of meh, didn’t really enhance the story for me that much and it seemed forced, the writers just chalk it up to fate that he ends up in Rome as a gladiator. I did learn something new though, that kids with blonde hair can actually turn into adults with dark brown hair. Despite tons of flaws the movie was entertaining enough and is worth checking out for the epic visuals and action scenes.

Lucius, vnuk císaře Marka Aurelia a syn „prvního“ gladiátora Maxima, žije v utajení v jednom z posledních svobodných měst na severu Afriky. Rozpínavá Římská říše ho však nenechá na pokoji. Stačí jeden masívní útok loďstva vedeného generálem Acaciem a prosperující město se změní v ruiny a svobodný Lucius v bezejmenného otroka. Urostlého zajatce si všimne organizátor gladiátorských zápasů Macrinus, který z něj chce mít hvězdu Římského kolosea (než ho nahradí někdo schopnější). Gladiátorské hry však nejsou tou hlavní hrou, kterou Marcinus hraje. Důmyslný stratég si uvědomuje slabost impéria ovládaného dvěma šílenými císaři, Caracallou a Getou, a rozehraje riskantní partii, v níž na pomyslné šachovnici bojují gladiátor a také právoplatný dědic římského trůnu Lucius, jeho matka Lucilla a generál Acacius, její manžel a zároveň muž, kterého její syn k smrti nenávidí, protože mu zničil život. Blíží se střet, při kterém krev nepoteče jen Koloseem, ale i ulicemi Říma.
