Go tell the Spartans, passerby, That here, by Spartan law, we lie - Frank Miller's 300
just saw the movie 300 a while ago. its a great movie but not that great as most of its reviews seem to say. its something i would say short of awesome. its not something that really blew me away (almost...but not quite). but its not a waste of time either. its a good watch.
is it a must see? it depends. its not something i would highly recommend for everyone. maybe there's just a type of audience for it. it can be enjoyed by most people but i think comic book fans are the ones who would truly appreciate the film. or those who really like the visual style of Frank Miller's Sin City.
anyway, i liked the movie. i like the visual style and the soundtrack's cool. the way they depicted the Battle of Thermopylae was great (i wish history classes could be presented like this). the only problem i had with the movie is that it lacked movie hotties. ok, that's a bit shallow, but hey, its something to be considered, right? King Leonidas' wife, Queen Gorgo may be hot, but she's not sizzling. aside from that, the movie's ok. it didnt blow me away because...i dont know, it just didnt. like i said, its short of awesome, but still a very good watch if you feel like watching a movie. this is the type of movie which is better to watch in a movie house than on DVD (unless you have a kick-ass home theater system)
