Gladiator II follows many of the beats of the original, at times too closely. Still, Scott and screenwriter David Scarpa inject enough political intrigue and dramatic character dynamics to keep the story absorbing. While far from complex, the two-pronged narrative of violent duels and political scheming makes for a full-bodied experience full of melodrama and moments of pause and consideration. The object of Lucius’ vengeance, Acacias, is not an evil warmonger but a pawn of such rulers, deeply tired of eternal conflict and a man who, above all, loves and cares for his wife.
