Feb 20, 2014 · Rating: C-. Matt 's POMPEII review of Paul W.S. Anderson's action film starring Kit Harington, Emily Browning, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, and Kiefer Sutherland.
The people that filled Pompeii before impact was just as interesting. A very interesting documentary about the most incredible natural disaster of the last 2000 years.
