Kit Harrington is the film's lead, Milo, a Celt whose entire village is slaughtered in front him when he is child, and he later becomes a slave, forced into Gladitoring (that isn't a word!). His performance is one note, and full of complete awful. It wasn't as bad as Kellan Lutz in "Hercules" (by far the worst performance of this short year, so far), but coupled with the piss poor script, it isn't good in any way. Anderson also manages to waste a considerable amount of talent, Carrie-Anne Moss and Jared Harris among the roster. I'm not sure why Kiefer Sutherland was in this, but it surely isn't the first time he did something this far below his standards. I really wish that the Volcano scene would have happened roughly an hour and a half earlier.
