Totally a waste of time - sort of a hodgepodge of Glatiator,300 and Caligula with the fight scenes strangely being the least compelling part.
Notable for the over the top violence, badly out of place expletives, explicit nudity and not much else.
Overall I'd give it a 4/10
The over-use and blatant ripoff of the 300 slow-mo monochromatic violence highlighted by the bright red splatter of blood started off old and got irritating very quickly - a case of style over( and instead of) real tension.
Also not much about the character Spartacus to cheer for at this point other than he has an incredibly hot wife who like every other woman (and man - yes there is male full frontal) loses her clothes( and has sex ) at every opportunity.
That fact along with getting to finally see Lucy Lawless's tits is basically ( at this time) my sole reason to continue watching.
Shallow yes but there are worse ways to spend my time than watching beautiful women getting naked.
Heroes for example.
