| i watched it last night during the midnight show. i wasn't really wowed or anything by the movie. but the visuals in the movie and the battle scenes were awesome. i liked how they portrayed the spartans too. i thought it might have jumped into the battle with 300 spartans fighting too quickly though, should have had more of a story, like show something about the persian empire first. |

| I would liken it to Troy in many ways, just more stylistic and violent. Very good movie. |

"300" Presents a dual clash of civilizations. An action adventure that pits thousands of Persians against 300 brave Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae, it also pits millions of fans of brainless violence against a gallant band, or so I choose to think of us, who still expect movies to contain detectable traces of humanity. The oracles have already foretold which side will win this weekend's Battle of the Box Office.
Like "Sin City" before it, "300" was adapted from a graphic novel by Frank Miller, and uses digital techniques, as well as a palette of doomy-dreary tones, to fill the screen with striking images--massed armies, huddled phalanxes, piled corpses, loathsome monsters, a tree of death. (The director was Zack Snyder, and the production designer was James Bissell.) The giant-screen IMAX version, to which I unwittingly subjected myself, ups the ante from striking to assaulting--so many depictions of impalements, eviscerations, amputations and graphic beheadings that you don't know what to worry about the most, the body count or the head count. Being a Spartan, the movie tells us, was about pride, pecs, and abs. Being a Persian was about leering, body piercing, and, particularly in the case of the bass-boosted Xerxes, bejeweled preening; his costume would be a stunner on any runway in the modern world.

| I saw it tonight on an Imax screen. It was pretty good, I had high hopes for it, but there were points that were really dry. |

Better than troy, almost as enjoyable as Gladiator.
Gets your testosterone going for sure. decapitiation, hands flying all over, sex scenes with hawt bouncing boobies. Whats not to like about this movie.
I watched it with my gf, should have watched it with the guys cause it would be a hella lot more fun. |

meh
for whatever reason, i never thought this was gonna be very good
heard a review of it earlier today from a film critic who i agree with 99% of the time, and he thought it was just okay
i haven't seen the film, but for some reason i feel like they're gonna use this epic overall concept of a story to make up for the lack thereof within the movie itself
idk
for the people who've seen it: did it actually have an engaging plot, or was it just basically scenes to tying together the action, which was the heart of the movie?
idk, but i assume the latter, and until someone i trust says otherwise, this isn't gonna be anywhere near the top of my movies to see |
