Gladiator II Review

on
Ready to re-enter the Colosseum in ancient Rome? In 2000 Gladiator was released, the historical epic won five Academy awards including Best Picture and Best Actor for Russell Crowe. Twenty-four years later director Ridley Scott has given us a sequel - Gladiator II. Scott had a mammoth task at hand, how do you create a sequel to one of the greatest films of all time? Gladiator II is a four-star exhilarating historical epic. It fails to live up to its predecessor, but that doesn't not mean it is a bad film or even an unworthy sequel. I greatly enjoyed the cinematic experience that is Gladiator II, in all its historically epic style! Read on for my full review, there will be minor spoilers.  Set two decades after the events of Gladiator, you may expect to find a free Rome ruled by a senate that answers to the people, as was the dream of Emperor Marcus Aurelius. a Rome that Maximus fought and died to reform.

First Birthday - Thank You!

on
On this day a year ago I went to the midnight screening of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, once I got home from the screening I read a few reviews and I was so angry with what they said I decided to write my own review and I made Just Another Film Blog. When I started this blog a year ago I thought only a few people would even read it, yet here we are a whole year later and my blog has been read nearly 14,000 times. Today marks the First Birthday of my blog and I just wanted to thank you to all my family, friends and readers. 
I have learnt a lot since I started this blog. I feel like my writing style has progressed. But the thing that the blog has given me is confidence: confidence to write my views and confidence to post them online. At times I thought that maybe I should stop blogging but I continued and I am so glad that I did because I have gained so much. 

I want to say a huge thank you to everyone that has read, shared and liked my blog it honestly means so much and every time I see that people are reading my articles I get so excited. Its strange because  I've had so much support from people I never expected and I have even made some new friends which is something I never expected when I started writing.

I have lots of post planned going forward and cannot wait for the exciting year of cinema ahead and I really hope that everyone will continue to read.

I cannot thank you all enough x

Happy Birthday Just Another Film Blog!!
