I have absolutely no idea as to what was shown. Agreed it was hystory.. Spartans vs. Persians - but what`s with the wierd looking creatures and people?? Did they even exist then!!!! I understand if the story was based during a time - 1000`s of years ago, when the earth and sky were one... but this is history... Frank Miller`s adaptation is good, but not to make a film out of!! There was hardly any blood & gore.. just another movie which was hyped beyond comprehension. Sorry but definately not my cup of tea. - SM
I seen 300 last night and my goodness what an amazing film. I didn`t think they could out do Sin City but they did. Visually stunning, excellent story line, great acting and the spartan warriors bodies were quite enjoyable - LOL.
Facts from the movie: 300 Spartans did execute 100,000-500,000 Persians. Ephialtes was a real person who betrayed the Spartans in 480 B.C (However he did not look like a hunchback) Aaaaaaa-Ooooooooo is a real chant of the Spartans. Herodotus wrote that the Spartan said: "We shall fight in the shade" when he was told by a messenger that the Persian arrows would take out the sun. Spartans really did throw their baby`s off the cliff if they were disabled and found "unhealthy". This was truly a great movie.
300 TOTALLY rocked!! Had some great memorable lines in it as well! A Must see film for sure
Beautiful film - really a very different, very cool look - better than "Sin City". Gerard Butler is gorgeous!
Good movie, but not AMAZING like so many people are saying. I`d give Gladiator and Troy better marks, however considering this movie was based on a Graphic novel or comic or whatever, it was definately good! War movie with love story and some fiction, all put together to flow nicely...Good movie.
Holy ABs R Us!! My guy is Greek - he`s been on "warrior" mode for days now. Great film!
sweet movie
the ultimate action movie ever, it makes Gladiator look like childs play!!!
Great movie. Seen it twice in the past week. Only flaw I could find were the "football movie" motivational speaches every 4 seconds it seemed during fight scenes. Although the fight scenes are unrealistic, the director has acknowleged the fact and confessed to using the fighting as more of an art form. Aka: Effing crazy and extremely entertaining. Good story, 4 stars.
