Gladiator II Ratings & Reviews
- stolteclanhace 2 dTired and boring. And c’mon Denzel, let’s see you act. You’re great as yourself in all the other movies, NOT THIS THOUGH
- Varun5 de diciembre de 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.
- Ty Leet27 de noviembre de 2024Fire everyone involved except Paul Mescal and try again.
- Derek Schweitzerhace 4 dAbsurd sequel, will be quickly forgotten.
- makdelart10 de marzo de 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.
- arjunramanathan24 de febrero de 2026rehash of old story
- dal.gi24 de marzo de 2025Absolute trash
- turbob247 de febrero de 2026Not a patch on the original, but epic fun
- carlin_9815 de agosto de 2025One of the worst sequels i've ever seen. Incredibly boring
- MrTrivet2 de febrero de 2026The film has its moments of spectacle, but the derivative story beats, relying on recycled emotions, aren’t enough to give the whole any greater significance.
- S Jöhansson28 de enero de 2025Gladiator 2 is arguably the most overhyped film of the past decade.
- a.kirk18 de enero de 2026Pretty good, entirely unnecessary. Would have been better as another stand alone story.
- Vandyt11 de enero de 2026A movie that barely holds together thanks to Denzel’s performance. The hero is worth nothing, and the story is fine, but the development is completely watered down
- J.F. Ruiz7 de julio de 2025It is a shame.
- Andrew Kerr14 de junio de 2025Had potential. Poor execution. Outdated directing style and cinematography. Frankly ridiculous dialogue and character interactions completely unrealistic and implausible. Wasted good actors.
