Pompeii (2014)
Directed by Paul W. S.
Anderson this film stars Kit Harington, Emily Browning, Adewale
Akinnuoye-Adbaje and Kiefer Sutherland. A small boy sees his family
slaughtered by Romans then is taken to work as a slave in Pompeii.
While billed as a
disaster film the first two thirds of this this film are a
lightweight Gladiator (2000) remake with the disaster part being an
after thought. It is hard to find much to like here given the
predictability of the plot. Some of the visuals are not bad but it's
all CGI all the way and Kiefer Sutherland is hamming it up as the
villain.
2/5
