Pompeii (2014)

This movie is based off historical events.

A young boy loses his parents right in front of his eyes and gets taken and sold as a slave. When he grows up he becomes a gladiator. As a gladiator he is fighting for his life in the arena while Mount Vesuvius starts to erupt. His focus changes from fighting the other gladiators to running for his life and saving the girl he loves. But it is too difficult to outrun the lava flow and they are turned into ash where they stand.

This is a Roman era action movie with some great special effects. I give this movie a 4.5 out of 5.

Starring Kit Harington (Game of Thrones, Silent Hill: Revolution 3D) as Milo, Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix movies, Memento) as Aurelia, Emily Browning (Sucker Punch, The Uninvited) as Cassia, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, The Bourne Identity) as Atticus, Jessica Lucas (Cloverfield, The Akward Moment) as Ariadne, Jared Harris (Sherlock Holmes; A Game of Shadows) as Lincoln) as Severus and Kiefer Sutherland (24, Phone Booth) as Corvus.
