Kiefer Sutherland as a Roman Senator.....nope.
Kiefer put on a fake English accent to play a Roman! LOL
The black gladiator was easily the most impressive actor in this movie.
Volcano CGI special effects hitting Pompeii were over the…

This film was a pleasant surprise with an enjoyable story and lots of action. Great characters and cinematography. You really feel like you were there. Lord of the Rings meets Gladiator.
The Eruption of Pompeii is amazing and an Epic…

I admit, I only watched it because I'm a fan of Kit Harrington from "Game of Thrones" and Emily Browning from the "American Gods" TV series. It gave me something to bond over with my teen, who is interested in the real history of Pompeii.…

Very silly plot in which very little true history was followed.
That said, this movie is a fun ride. Gladiator themed scenes, love story worked in, lots of battle tension, etc.
All white cast, mostly British. Since it's a fun…

I will admit that this is one of my favorite bad movies. I understand that filming disaster movies is not easy because then they'd have to focus on multiple happenings in each characters lives. This is why writers add a love story in a…
I read the comments, which... Folks, It's a LOVE movie, a chick-flick with violence. Sorry - it's done perfectly well enough if you're not addicted to fantastical fantasy in action and catastrophic shock and awe every 10 seconds. Neither…

One of the typical super-predictable Hollywood garbage movies. Bad.

Reminds me of Russel crow's "Gladiator". This movie is less about the destruction of Pompeii than it is about one slave / gladiator who, while trying to win the heart of a princess, also tries to get revenge on the Romans who murdered his…

Special effects weren't too bad - definitely not top notch. When a review leads with a comment about special effects - that tells you about the rest of the movie. The gladiator scenes were decent as well, fairly well performed, but the…

Actually good special-effects and a better movie than I thought. I thought the characters were pretty good considering. They drug it out at the end. But all in all pretty good movie

a pretty good attempt at a sequel but didn't live up to the hype that the first Cool Runnings movie created. Emilio Estevez did a good job portraying the volcano though.

This is really nothing more than just more extreme GLOBAL WARMING PROPAGANDA,BEHAVIOR PLACEMENT,NONSENSE ''Spartacus'' the movie style period.Some might think that this is APOCALYPTIC ''Sodom & Gomorrah'' style,but that is not the reason…

Not as bad as I thought it would be and there are some scenes where K. Sutherland channels his 'Jack Bauer' anger to good use! It might be overstating the obvious but one of the few movies you'll watch where no one makes it out alive...
