Transcript
00:00Strength another
00:08It is an art choosing gladiators
00:12They're usually prisoners of war I claim this city for the glory of Rome
00:23You have something in you rage
00:27Never let it go
00:30It will carry you
00:34To greatness
00:51But um, I've recently seen gliar 2 and it's
00:55Pretty good. Pretty good. It's pretty good. No, it is a complete rehash of the first one
01:00I mean beat for beat doesn't just apply when you see him exactly
01:04It's the exact same problem what the action on it is and all is like some of the best action you can watch
01:11from like a Hollywood blockbuster these days
01:14But I had some thoughts on Paul Metzger's performance
01:18Um
01:19He puts on no attempt to do any kind of like actually on their voice. It just sounds like a fell from there
01:27It just sounds like he's from
01:29He had although Dan's L when he's on a scene. He pretty much carries the same
01:35He's anytime he's on screen you're hurt. Even he does very very well fighting in the phone when I was there. It's the only good
01:42like dialogue on the phone
01:44She was kind of saying they're all walking
01:46First of all, if you have I got much like presence
01:49What was the cool proves? All right, the guy played a
01:53Emperor before he's an Irish
01:56He's pretty good
01:58All right, man, but it's it's so funny seeing Paul Metzger because he has that like modern-day mold
02:03And it just makes no sense. That's a proper skin. Hey, it just looks so silly and with sully accents
02:10I thought was performances pretty weak for this action. Like it's actionable. It's really good
02:15He's almost like a stunt guy
02:18Being the protagonist in a movie where it's strange because he's like regard pretty heavy for us
02:24I'm they
02:27It's very well for all and the phones
02:31But this is just I mean, I don't think it's a lot to work with I wouldn't blame him entirely
02:37Yeah, it's just kind of he's the cool
02:42He's the gladiator, he's the gladiator to
02:46But I said there's all carries for what's ever seen his own
02:50Apparently he had a cut scene where he kissed another man. He's not very happy about it. Oh
02:54But I'm happy that happened. I had it was caught. I'm happy that was caught fair play respect
02:58I
03:01Say it's a very bad scholar. He thought the first one. I mean as I said, there's really not much that one's even on direction
03:08Although I do feel like it lacks. We've got a like a character the first one
03:20Thanks so much this just comes with also through I mean
03:23About a doctor, yeah
03:25Obviously, you're saying this guy's wasn't this good. Just don't have that sense. Well, no
03:29I like pull my school. It means doesn't make fun of cinema and the difference is first like I would blockbuster phone
03:36I believe they don't ever been like and they phones like BBC shoes
03:42Peter Pascal plays Peter Pascal, you know the just get the honorable man
03:47No, he is a really likable character and he's funny Watson. He has action scenes are also very good, but he's
03:59When he's on screen does does that sell their next no
04:04It's like they all just have their like a regional accent. Yeah. Yeah, and that no max it I mean
04:12Oh, wait, what accent was it today, you know, even like maybe an Italian I did do like just like a bit the same like
04:19So we go every section
04:24Also, could we just kind of have that deep kind of
04:29As I said, well, it was all just plain terrible like you could just swatch off and then just wouldn't fall sort of
04:36Completing didn't turn back on but what I praise with the action this one is like the first one
04:41Can't seem like they're more and obstacles Russell's cool cool character was more to the general train soldier
04:48but Paul Maskell's characters more like I
04:51Wouldn't say a brawler, but he's fighting says more
04:55Barbaric in a way. Is it definitely the scene of a soldier? He's not really soldier
05:00No, it's just it seems like he's just learned very fight because his happy fight
05:05Which I think just much that actually not so much better because it's not all flash
05:09He's like he's rolling people over and the locks no one points. No, it's not it's more physical
05:14I flare definitely not spoil anything from the phone, but there's a fight. That's really like Thomas where he's just like
05:21At a party and because he's a gladiator
05:24They ask him they fight someone else there and he has to because he's a slave and it's just on a room
05:29But it's so well done. They're like crashing through tables and poke each other. No, you don't know. It's good
05:36And it's
05:43I never understand that the way people go on these phones going, you know, I hope this is accurate to the time
05:49Thanks. No, sir. It would just be kind of more like you're just watching slaves get massacred by the clients
05:57There's no like drama
06:00And our we highlight from it I'm trying to use my spoilers of performance again
06:05Is that he fights monkeys?
06:09It's just class
06:17It's just overall it's just a really fun film
06:21Yeah, I'm not going to go on like
06:23Wow, it's my life's chains
06:26Philosophical masterpiece, but I can't go on that's pretty cool
06:29Look at work when they watch like in cinema or is it like could you watch it won't get the same kind of experience?
06:34Oh, this is like a action flick. I'd say
06:38Thank you must too much. No, this has some big grand scale scenes look like this. I don't know. How do you
06:45That'd be pretty good. But I mean
06:47speakers these days
06:51Like some experience
06:53but um
06:56If you'd like the first one I say I would like this one maybe not as much as the first one
07:02But it's not doesn't seem special. No, it's not like the first one's like a special movie. This one's just
07:08This is glider to you. It's like there's doesn't even cost you the sequels that no one's ever watched. I don't speak the DVD. Yeah
07:15Like
07:17It is it's like the stereotypical Hollywood blockbuster epic phone by set pieces lots of green screen
07:24It seems yeah, I didn't make money for at least some percentage of those just
07:30Through rolls pretty good. Would you see it or
07:35That's
07:39Empires fall so do emperors
07:50The odds are against you the odds are always against me
