The original Gladiator was one the milestone movies about the Roman Empire. We almost lived and felt the the same atmosphere with the Romans of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius. It was so realistic absorbing the audience from the first scene. The battle with the Northern Barbarians in the forest has always been remembered by me. The script, the characters, the scenes, Russel Crowe, Joachin Phoenix all were the first class. However this movie lost its plausibility from the first scenes using lots of cgis and illogical battle scenes. What is this? A fantastic movie? Riding a rhino, hungry sharks swimming in the Colosseum ? This movie is like an insult to the original Gladiator with lots of cgi and fictitious, fantasy scenes. Mr Scott shoul have lost his orientation while shooting this movie...

It's extremely difficult to write 600 characters about this so called movie. Just take 10 minutes of one of the action scenes and copy it 20 times so you could bore the watchers to death! What was the purpose of the producers, script writers and the director to spend so much time and money for this thrash? Was there anything plausible in this so called movie? John Wick I was ok within its fiction universe of assassins and mobs etc. And somehow watchable action scenes. However what could we say about this repetitive misery of extreme exaggeration of a character who could not be harmed under any condition? Take Mr. Wick as the next generation Terminator...Maybe.

Script has some loopholes as the movie unfolds with unprofessional combat practices. In Afghanistan considering the huge resources of the US Army, sending a group of soldiers to long distance operations without air support and drone surveillance seems implausible. Most of the times the team of the Sergeant are left as easy targets and vulnerable. But they are always sharp shooters whatever the conditions are. Other than these loopholes characters and acting are good. Art direction and photography are professional. As the invasion of Afghanistan is concerned in reality the good and the evil are not clearly and easily distinguishable considering the thousands of children killed by reckless bombings there. I can't say there's an impartial objective approach.
