Braveheart, Gladiator, LOTR and perhaps even Troy are only some of the epic movies that gave the audience so big thrills that they cannot be repeated. Almost every epic movie that will be made today, no matter how good the story will be or how faithful will be to reality,is bound to repeat itself.
300 doesn't apply to this category. Besides it takes the epic to the next level. And more are like to follow.
Just like in the LotR, much CGI was used here.
The result? This movie was a pleasure for the eye.
All the camera work and graphics exceeded my expectations. I thought they were comparable, if not better, to the Largo see for yourselves.
I wanted the best from the actors. Butler gave it. The anger in his eyes, the fury in his voice and the violence in his actions really reminded an ancient Greek king),but I won't ruin it for you. You must see it to understand how great this movie is.
Always remember this is a movie that is based on a graphic novel and is by no means a faithful depiction of what really happened in Thermopylae in 480 B.C.
This movie, together with the LOTR, is the entrance to the 21st century's new epic movies.
Kudos to Zack Snyder, who proved that he is a brilliant and capable director.

Its a little shalow but this is still a great piece of gore filled entertainment. It is visualy stunning, hugely entertaining and the battle scenes and design are excellent.

I thought 300 was an exellent and very entertaining film.
Im not really that bothered if its not historically correct because the film kept on the edge of your seat the whole way through with non stop action. If you like action thrillers this film is the film to see!!
