Great movies can play fast and loose with history. But not Gladiator II with its rhinos and cafe culture | Charlotte Higgins
The historical inaccuracies in Gladiator II are abundant, with scenes like taming rhinos and mock sea battles raising eyebrows. Despite entertaining moments, the film struggles to maintain coherence and logic, lacking the compelling plot of its predecessor, Gladiator I. Stick to the original for a more historically sound experience.
