Gladiator. Last time I saw it was like 10 years ago and my wife hadn't seen it yet.

IMO the sequel is average at best.
I really need to rewatch this one to see how mediocre the sequel actually is.

Can’t wait to see the sequel

It's good and entertaining but not amazing like the first. The spectacle the first one created was new for modern cinema, which the second still does but it's lost the novelty, even by introducing novelty. Worth seeing, but not a classic, like the first. Most of the plot is a bit predictable and follows the plot beats of the first.

What we do in this life echoes in eternity, taken to its extreme.
