Powerful Acting & stylized action

Rating: 7/10 (29 July 2011)

I've seen quite a few war movies favorite being braveheart, but i had always heard that 300 is a must watch. I finally completed watching it & I did enjoy it.
Excessive gore, slow motion action scenes, interesting creatures & characters. All blended together nicely with a superb performance by Gerard butler. He really fit into the act effortlessly. Sequence such as his leaving for the battle, the meet with Xerexes, consoling his fellowmen & motivating them for the final stand really stand out & remain with you for some time. Really powerful .
Only thing that put me off was excess use of slow motion shots (felt a bit overdone sometimes). All in all, worth your time.
