POMPEII - A Hero Rises [HD]

Adventure, romance and a natural disaster of cataclysmic proportions collide headlong in POMPEII , director Paul W. S. Anderson's epic recreation of one of the ancient world's most compelling tragedies. Set in 79 A.D., POMPEII tells the heroic story of Milo (Kit Harington), a slave turned gladiator who finds himself in a race against time to save his true love, Cassia (Emily Browning), who has been unwillingly betrothed to a corrupt Roman Senator (Kiefer Sutherland). In order to win his freedom, Milo must overcome the mighty, previously unbeaten, gladiator Atticus (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) in the amphitheatre. But as Mount Vesuvius erupts in a torrent of blazing lava, Milo and Atticus must join forces to fight their way out of the arena in order to save themselves and Cassia as the once magnificent city of Pompeii crumbles around them. POMPEII stars Kit Harington ("Game of Thrones," The Seventh Son), Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix film franchise, Memento), Emily Browning (Sucker Punch, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Thor: The Dark World, "Lost"), Jessica Lucas (Evil Dead, Cloverfield), with Jared Harris (The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, "Mad Men"), and Kiefer Sutherland ("24", Melancholia).
