I thought it was a massive embellishment of the Battle of Thermopylae. Appreciated it for the artistic re-creation of the graphic novel. I was so amazed that I read the history on the battle. To my surprise the movie was much more accurate than not. I ended up studying on the Greeks and warfare in general, the movie stimulated a lot of research and learning on my part. Fun indeed.

We'll have to agree to disagree about global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along

the video game CGI. The sky, the landscapes and even the actors looked like they were pulled from a video game. I'm very familiar with the story and was very much looking forward to the movie, but it was painful to watch.
- It was based on a graphic-novel: "300". It was supposed to look that way . . . - mr grits 20:45:10 07/25/10 (0)
