| Elevator Pitch | A gladiator in Pompeii forms an unlikely relationship with the daughter of the local enterpreneur, but she is unwillingly promised to a visiting senator who controls the planning permissions for the city. Combat in the arena plays out while the volcano rumbles in the background. | ||
| Content | A lot of gladiatorial combat of various sorts and in various places. Some time spent in the dimness of the gladiators’ accommodation and at parties for the Roman elite. And eventually a lot of drama as the volcano erupts. No sex or nudity although people look lustfully at each other. | ||
| A View | I thought that this might be OK, because I am a bit of a fan of Resident Evil, but no such luck. The actors were wooden except for Kiefer Sutherland who I thought did quite well with his English accent ( despite what the critics said). The plot was looney, but we can sympathise with the writers who had to get to the eruption somehow. | ||
