    • Trivia
      Director Paul W.S. Anderson said that he was not pleased when a lot of people online said that Kit Harington's six-pack abs were digitally enhanced and not real after the first stills and trailers for the movie were released. He reiterated that they were completely real with no make-up or digital enhancement and Harington actually looked like that for the shooting of those scenes.
    • Goofs
      Corvus has a bust of the Emperor Hadrian on display in his military tent. Hadrian was emperor from AD 117 - 138, and would have only been three years old at the time.
    • Quotes

      Corvus: What exactly is that slave to you?

      Cassia: Everything that you are not.

    • Alternate versions
      The UK release was cut, the distributor was advised that the film was likely to receive a 15 classification but that their preferred 12A classification could be obtained by making some changes. The distributor was advised to reduce stronger moments of violence where there was a dwelling on particular acts and to reduce the emphasis on blood on bladed weapons. When the film was formally submitted, changes had been made which addressed these concerns. Consequently, the film was classified 12A.

    Underrated

    While not a classic, Pompeii is actually a pretty enjoyable disaster/action flick that I couldn't wait to see back in 2014. I remember enjoying it in cinemas and have just watch it again for the 2nd time. I really need to get around to watching the 24 minutes of cut footage as I feel several characters were highly underused, especially Carrie Ann Moss and Jessica Lucas. While the ending still kinda annoys me, I really don't think it could've ended any other way.

    It's fast paced, has some great action scenes and is an overall pretty decent. Nowhere near as bad as others are making out to be. I wish Emily Browning would make more big budget movies.
