You guys are going to kill me but I don’t hate what I’ve seen for POMPEII. I have no shame in saying this either. Sure, it’s not super spectacular but the cast features a lot of actors I like. So, f*ck it. I may not see it in theaters but I will eventually watch it on DVD.
If you weren’t into it then the second trailer might be more convincing. There’s a ton more action here, not to mention that it’s not just Jon Snow Kit Harington just brooding while a volcano is a few minutes away from eliminating his existence. Okay, maybe it happens a couple of times. My only complaint is not enough Kiefer Sutherland. Bring on the Kiefer!
“Whatever is happening here we’ll find freedom, my friend.”
Synopsis:
a slave turned gladiator finds himself in a race against time to save his true love, who has been betrothed to a corrupt Roman Senator. As Mount Vesuvius erupts, he must fight to save his beloved as Pompeii crumbles around him.”
POMPEII hits theaters on February 28, 2014.
