Review of Pompeii (2014) by Kieran F — 01 Sep 2014
The CGI is the star here, cheesy story line, but Jon Snow (aka Kit Harrington) makes a serviceable action star. Gladiator does a disservice to all following movies set in Roman times in that they all seem like they're trying to copy it no matter how original they try to be.
Kiefer Sutherland is way over the top in his bad guy role, but it's fun to see him not be the good guy ala Jack Bauer all the time. At least they didn't have everyone survive just to make a cheesy love story even cheesier.
