Review of Pompeii

Pompeii (I) (2014)
7/10
This is going into my bad movie HOF
4 June 2023
Jon Snow is playing the Spaniard from gladiator with Conan the Barbarian's back story. Kiefer Sutherland is trying to play a tough guy version of Joaquin Phoenix's Commodus and is less believable as a Roman Centurion, Caesar, senator I don't know what he's playing, but whatever it is Nic Cage has a better Alabama accent than whatever the Kiefer is doing in this. Then the volcano blows and it turns into a Roland Emmerich disaster movie mixed with titanic. The fact it's pg13 makes it funnier because there has been several throats slashed. Woman and Children cut down in cold blood on screen, but no blood spatter at all. This was obviously rated R and someone made a decision to make it more family friendly, but left all the death in. Basically it's a top tier comedy. This movie is awesome. People are dying dramatic deaths and I guess I'm supposed to care, but have no idea who they are because it's moving so fast I don't know who is who, but just that I know I saw that person earlier and now they're dying in slow motion by all sorts of different things. If you don't like this than you know nothing Jon Snow. This is a Neil Breen movie with a huge budget.
