Also Gladiator II is VERY MUCH a Denzel movie. Way more than what the trailers or reviews give credit for.

That is a Denzel Washington movie.

If Denzel is in any movie, it's hard for the movie to not be his...

lilbitthinky.bsky.social•84 days ago

he makes the movie

msjei09.bsky.social•83 days ago

I went for Denzel and Pedro. Pedro was barely in it. Denzel was the best party. I was bored anytime he wasn’t on screen.

biscuitsandbooks.bsky.social•84 days ago

Yess!!! That’s what I said!!! Him and Paul were clearly co-leads. He had more lines than anyone!

quovis.bsky.social•84 days ago

Seems like any movie he’s in is a Denzel movie. He dominates any scene he’s in.

aquelaquecagou.bsky.social•84 days ago

And I'd say it's a very good surprise

andrealuttrell.bsky.social•84 days ago

He’s so crazy charismatic. If he’s on screen, he’s all I pay attention to!

kenny.craves.pizza•84 days ago

Yep!

hrryan.bsky.social•84 days ago

Wow, in that case I might see it. I disliked the first one.

kuffy01.bsky.social•84 days ago

Man, I did not see his twists coming. Denzel can take great storytelling and make it something entirely new. What a great movie.

iamkevinsamuel.bsky.social•83 days ago

We knew this already… he’s the only reason ✊🏾 we going to see it

johnaok.bsky.social•84 days ago

Himself and Paul were amazing. Denzel was in the movie a lot more than I initially thought, but his character was a brilliant way to help push the story. Need to see Paul Mescal and Denzel in another film together.

mikebroderick33.bsky.social•84 days ago

That's the only reason I want to see it, as I didn't like Gladiator.

Denzel's participation will entice me to watch it.

agninri.bsky.social•84 days ago

Yes. Yes. Just saw it. And that was my post about it. Denzel.

wrexweed.bsky.social•84 days ago

I was hoping for this so deeply. I'd have loved every moment regardless, and still consider it his movie anyway, if he only had 10-15 minutes of ST but he's like a major player??

dan-weber.bsky.social•84 days ago

Didn’t want to watch it, now I do

juliettewade.bsky.social•84 days ago

Denzel Washington is awesome, full stop.

darcielanthier.bsky.social•84 days ago

It was absolutely awful. Denzel was the best part of it and he just played himself.

sbnew.bsky.social•84 days ago

It was like the director told Denzel ‘Do you’. Best part of the movie. Rest of it was mid at best.

brownsugardee.bsky.social•84 days ago

Excellent

fincheresque.bsky.social•84 days ago

He was having _SO_ much fun in this movie. And it wasn’t even him being Denzel-Being-Fun from other movies.

He literally seems to just be having a blast and being a cool ass character.

Loved seeing him in it. Nobody could wear flowing clothes like he did.

johngoodman.bsky.social•84 days ago

really great work with flowing clothes and rings

tcfka-stevas.bsky.social•84 days ago

SOLD

jmikedemo.bsky.social•84 days ago

I’ll second that my all time favorite actor

dougheyedbaker.bsky.social•84 days ago

Is that a good thing. I loved the first movie

prettykhemyst.bsky.social•84 days ago

Going to see this movie with a friend and we are only going to see said movie because Denzel is in it.

eugchan.bsky.social•84 days ago

He just chews that scenery!

robryanreviews.bsky.social•84 days ago

The whole movie should have just been about his rise to power and how that ends up causing the downfall of Rome instead of just rehashing the first movie.
