Gladiator 2

Volcanic eruption, life freezes, and the history of the destruction of the ancient city of Pompeii is known to everyone. Of course, the theme of the destruction of Pompeii is indeed full of gimmicks, introducing reverie, and we also know that although the film is called the end of Pompeii, it must be around a certain background in this context. The story unfolds to show the events of Pompeii's downfall (otherwise it would not be a documentary).
In fact, the most curious thing before watching it is how the director tells such a story that everyone knows the ending. In the end, I found out that it was a gladiatorial drama. It was a bit clever, and of course there were many flaws: it was a little blunt, full of middle-level atmosphere, and the emotional drama was far-fetched.
But the advantages of the film are also more prominent. Several scenes (arena melee, ancient Roman-style car chase, volcanic eruption) are well done, and the first and last kiss before the mountain fire roars at the end It's not bad, but overall it's a good story.
