"What is it about a mythical look at an historic event that took place 2500 years ago that brings out the political nutt

I'm not sure what is mythical about it.
I do not believe anyone who works in movies is unaware of the imagery used by fascist and totalitarian states and which is largely the same as this.
Check out the Nazis' and Italian fascists' love of "classical" looking buildings and their hatred of modernism.
The Aryan superman...
This film isn't mythical it's fictional. It's a comic book come to life. Imaginatively so. But as such it carries the ludicrous machismo of this US culture with it.
