    I worked on set in Malta. And i can say that going in to work and being on set felt like travelling back through time.

    I am from Malta and i worked on this film with the carpenters section.
    Me and my friend Arthur done a lot of work on the arches especially on the biggest one entering in the coleseum and the ones inside the coleseum.
    It was a great experience for me.
    I saw the film last Monday and i like it very much.

      Thank you for sharing. I'm glad that you had a good experience. Y'all did great work with the Colosseum set. 👍
      I absolutely loved the production design of Gladiator II, and the film as a whole is a masterpiece.

    Gladiator II isnt set 2 decades after the first film, its set 16 years later. Furthermore, Connie Neilson isnt the only returning member of the cast, you forgot the very excellent Sir Derek Jacobi as Senator Gracchus.

    Im going to c it on monday. i loved the first gladiator. i was not surprised when it won Best Picture. thanks to everyone who worked on the film. the workers who help make movies, dont usually get enough credit. Your comments are interesting. the fans want to hear it....I watched the first gladiator, 2 times in the last 4 days. haha. Russell Crowe was also best actor. Looking forward to this 3 hour vacation......

    I went to see Gladiator 2 today! Amazing! Living in South Africa, 45 km from Kruger National park, and seeing rhinos in real life (although very rarely now), I can only wonder at the amazingly realistic (anamatronic) rhino in this film... Even the movement, the hair on the ears.... Everything about this movie screams BLOCK BUSTER!!

    • @retroafro1
      @retroafro1 Месяц назад +2

      Nowhere near as good as the 1st film. The pacing is so disjointed that the characters personality's are thrown out the window, the character building and camaraderie just isn't there unfortunately.
      Visually it's decent, although the CGI of the animals were really bad and off-putting particularly the demon monkeys.
      I feel the casting was offbeat, Denzel Washington just doesn't work in my opinion.....the main character doesn't have anywhere near the presence of Russel Crow - across the board I didn't find the acting great - more about their name than breathing life into the characters they were. I literally couldn't harbour any emotional connection to the characters or events what so ever, as the time spent on this element was almost nil or rushed.
      It was a fun film at best...wasted opportunity imo - major pacing issues and weak dialogue - felt like they used gladiator 1 far to much to maybe try and swing it - but lost its own identity

      Horrible in comparison to the original. Lots of violence and special effects but completely lackluster in emotion. The star, Maximus’ son, is horrendous and speaks in monotone. It’s mind boggling they put this out. If you loved Gladiator this movie isn’t for you. If you love special effects and don’t care about the story then it’s right up your alley. I give it a 2 out of 10.

    The scene when they fill coliseum with water and sharks it was visually stunning but historically I think that never happened is more like a phantasy scene which is ok I guess and in a movie anything can happen but if is supposed be about real events mixing it up with phantasy it makes the movie kinda cheese. But at the end I did enjoyed the movie
