In Part 2 of our SMART analysis of Gladiator 2, we turn our focus to the Audience and offer a Rethink of the film's central themes. We talk about who might struggle with the movie's emphasis on manipulation, bitterness, and vengeance, and why others could actually find it to be a healthy challenge. We highlight Lucius's journey as a cautionary tale about the isolating power of anger and the freedom that comes with forgiveness. From there, we broaden the conversation to explore authority, efficiency in the Church, and the way our culture elevates rage and pride as strengths. Finally, we dig into what it means to practice biblical shrewdness—being wise and observant without losing our integrity.
