•The simplicity of the past is missed in Gladiator II
54% Informative
Gone is the rich visual texture of its predecessor, which was shot on film, replaced with the flat, blandly lit tinniness of digital.
Paul Mescal , rippling and scruffy, plays Hanno , a farmer-soldier living in Numidia , on the north coast of Africa .
The grand emotional sweep of the first film is nowhere to be found in the sequel.
The keen and rumble of an older mythos descends on this lesser tale and in so doing elevates it.
Hanno 's arc suddenly matters, his place in the Gladiator firmament finally clear.
It takes a long while to get there, though, a middling trek through the Roman wilderness occasionally enlivened by one of Washington 's mesmerizing flourishes.
